Tree of Life | Tuesday | June 28 | (1-4)
Start with a vertical panel of fabric - add black and a coordinating fabric to create frames, bars, and nine-patches - and in no time at all, you will create this striking quilt. Select one of our kits or choose your own panel and fabrics from the shop. Measuring 47” x 64”, Tree of Life is a perfect size for a small throw or large wall hanging.
