Wagon Wheel by Denyse Schmidt - Quilt Workshop
In this workshop, you'll learn to make the key block in the Denyse Schmidt Wagon Wheel pattern. As she says on her website, "the Wagon Wheel pattern is a graphic reminder of how quilters through the centuries have drawn inspiration from the objects and circumstances of their times."
She was moved by the suggestion of motion and the large scale of the blocks, and so are we.
Details
Difficulty - Advanced beginner, you can use a rotary cutter and acrylic ruler, maintain a 1/4" seam allowance, and do basic quilt math.

Supply List - The Pattern is included in the workshop price
You will need to bring your own fabric and thread (fabric requirements are outlined in the last image, you can bring enough for one or two blocks and then be prepared to finish the rest at home in the size you choose). We have Pfaff Passport sewing machines for your use in the class. Please bring your fabric and sewing kit (rotary cutter, pins or wonder clips, any tools you like to use when piecing a quilt block). A detailed list of materials will be sent in advance of the class.
Pattern Notes - There is a wonderful Sew Along on Instagram starting in September that you can follow here in case you're looking for inspiration. #wagonwheelsal24
