Diamond Quilt Workshop
Workshop Information

Diamond workshop is based on the Contrast Diamonds quilt pattern in Kaffe Fassett’s book, Quilts in
London. This is a class suitable for beginners who already know how to sew a seam and how to use a
rotary cutter. It is also for more advanced quilters who wish to concentrate on complex colour
development.
Please note: No sewing takes place during the workshop.

BEFORE THE CLASS
MAIN FABRICS
Bring at least óyd pieces of 20 different medium to large scale prints that are harmonious together. They
might be all light and dark or mostly a color palette you prefer such as blues, or reds. The prints you
choose should be similar in tone and pattern but most important should be large scale. If not sure, bring
some extras and be prepared to shop during the workshop. Fabrics not suitable for this workshop
include small textured prints and precut packs.
For example: All reds from magenta to tomato. The prints can be multicolored as long as they are mostly
in your preferred color.
NOTE: Please feel free to bring any fabrics that you would like to use in the class – these do not have to
be Kaffe Fassett Collective fabrics.
Please do not cut fabrics before class.
