You’ll love this class for learning how to make 16-point compass blocks in 16 different sizes using Robin Ruth Design’s rulers and strip-piecing method! Join Robin and learn all the compass basics for making either a Skinny Robin or Fat Robin mariner’s compass block. Once you learn how to use my rulers and strip-piecing technique, you will be free to move on to one of the many patterns and projects made using this ruler system!

PROGRAM:
Ginny Eckley – Fabric
Painting
My
passion for art is fueled by my love of nature. Through my art, I challenge
myself
to learn new things, both artistic and academic. After researching the
endangered
birds of Hawaii, I focused on birds of New Guinea. There, the Bird of Paradise
species
are thriving, as efforts are made to protect them.
I
enjoy sharing my skills and techniques through teaching. I teach both in my
studio,
and venues, such as the International Quilt Festival. I have been fortunate to
have
taught in several cities throughout Japan.
