Quilt Nebraska 2018 

July 26 - 29 

 Hotel RL 

Omaha, NE

If you are in the Midwest in July, consider attending Quilt Nebraska, the annual show for the Nebraska State Quilt Guild.  I will be teaching several of my most popular classes.

July 27, 2018   - Merry Go Round Class by Reeze Hanson - Kit Fee $25 (includes: Sizzlin’ Sixties by Anka’s Treasures, by Heather Mulder Peterson (pattern book) and From Marti Michell™ Small 60° Triangle Ruler)

Merry Go Round Quilt

Make a fabulous pieced hexagon quilt using a jelly roll. You will learn a simple strip-piecing technique, rotary cutting with a 60° triangle ruler, and super easy construction techniques. The project makes a great throw or crib size quilt. Use 2 jelly rolls for a larger project. 

Benefits of Class: 

• Hexagon quilts are popular but piecing can be tricky. This quilt has NO set in seams and is easy and fast to make. 

• Strip piecing and rotary cutting with triangle ruler are techniques you can apply to lots of other projects. 

• Jelly rolls are fun and fabulous, and this is a great project to use one or two of them.
