Learn to Quilt with 60-Degree Rulers: With Instructor Marci Baker [USA] [DVD]

Discover how to piece 12 different star blocks to create a stunning quilt with this instructive DVD. This video class teaches you how to choose fabrics with the right balance of light, medium, and dark values; save time and fabric with cutting shortcuts; align, measure, and cut shapes using the Creative Grids and Clearview 60-degree rulers; cut beginner shapes including triangles, diamonds, and half-diamonds and more involved shapes such as hexagons, trapezoids, teardrops, gems, flat pyramids, and more. By the end of the lesson, you'll know how to press seams that lock together to reduce bulk and perfectly align, attain perfect points without pinning, and work straight seams, set-in seams, and easy Y-seams.
