Allison Spence a Certified Studio 180 Instructor will be joining us today to teach us how to use the Deb Tucker, Studio 180  Four Patch Square Up ruler, fabric kits will be provided and we will put the blocks together to donate a quilt to our charity  “Quilts for Everyday Heroes” this is the link to their website: https://www.quilts4everydayheroes.com/

Saturday, September 16 from 10 – 4

$20 fee to pay Allison for instruction and long arming the finished quilt for charity Rulers will be available to purchase at class.

Four Patches, basic units that seem so simple to make. Just stitch 4 squares together, either individually or with strip piecing and you’re good to go. But anyone who has attempted these units knows that they are notoriously difficult to make perfectly. Either the unit size isn’t quite right, the edges just don’t quite line up, or they’re just not quite square. Ugh. Even experienced stitchers encounter these problems.

The Four Patch Square Up© Tool is the solution. Like all the Studio 180 Design rulers and processes, this tool and technique will have you build your units slightly oversized and then quickly trim them to perfect shapes. The Four Patch Square Up© Tool is designed to work with units that finish to whole or half inch increments, from ½” finished up to 6” finished unit sizes. The tool’s perfectly engineered lines are designed to quickly locate and align with the unit center and the sewn seams, allowing for easy trimming on all four sides. The accuracy is amazing!
