SCRAP REDUCTION #2
With the 9 degree wedge ruler
Use all the left over strips sitting on your shelves to
make these wonderful pieced circles. You can use
strips in all lengths and widths for this easy to piece
quilt. These are BIG blocks. Make 1 block for a wall
hanging or 9 blocks for a large quilt. Scrap borders
can also be added .

four block quilt as shown above. During class students will work on 1 block.
