Curved Piecing Quilting Workshop with Suzy Quilts' Modern Fans Pillow

Ready to take your quilting skills to the next level? Join us for a workshop dedicated to the art of curved piecing. You’ll practice sewing a variety of curves, from gentle arcs to tight turns and finish the class with a fresh pillowcase using Suzy Quilts' Modern Fans pattern.  We’ll experiment with both super-pinned and pin-free techniques, learning how to control fabric movement for smooth, professional-looking results.
