Are you overwhelmed by scraps, either physically because you are drowning in them or mentally because the idea of a fully scrappy quilt scares you? The key to scrap containment is consistency. In this workshop, Beth shows you how to make the most of any pattern by augmenting it with just enough scraps to give it wow without going over the edge into craziness. Lots of thoughts on what makes a good scrap quilt, why scrap quilts are Beth’s favorites, and insights into how one idea can morph into so many more during the design process. You'll never look at a quilt pattern just one way again! Supplies are not required for a lecture, although you may want to bring a pen and paper to take notes.

If you haven't discovered the Accordion Sewn HSTs™ method of making half square triangles with no matches and no waste, it's time! It's not only fun and addictive, but by the time you create and cut apart your cute little accordions, your blocks have the potential to lay out perfectly to form your design! It's innovative and amazing, and once you learn the technique, you'll want to adapt it to all of your future half square triangle quilts!

What is a Flying Frankie? While it started as an autocorrect of "Flying Geese," the silly name quickly stuck as a description of scrappy outlined Flying Geese made using Beth’s Accordion Sewn HSTs™ method and contrasting piping. In this workshop, you will learn how to make these cool and eyecatching elements to create two blocks. Once you've mastered the technique, you'll want to add them to all sorts of projects!
