SUMMARY:Birthstone Class - May - Emerald
DESCRIPTION:Create our own sparkling gem using the same techniques that artist and designer JM KInman has used to create her giant gem quilts for over 20 years.You’ve read about MJ’s gem quilts in Quilting Arts Magazine and McCall’s Quilting magazine\, and you may have seen her on Quilting arts TV and The Quilt Show with Alex Anderson and Ricky Tims. Now MJ has created patterns that allow all of us to bring a little bling into our lives.  Through her use of color and contrast\, MJ has created patterns that will delight your senses and are a blast to put together even for the new quilt maker. \nThis isn’t your typical foundation paper piecing.
