coming soon: Angled Encore!

So, you have heard a bit about Angled class, but what is it actually? Glad you asked ;)

Since I began teaching online quilting classes in 2012, I’ve received so much great feedback about the quality of my content, as far as my communication style, tutorials and enticing projects. There is no need to constantly reinvent the wheel, so I encore some of my best courses every few years. Angled is one of them! It originally released in 2014, and it’s still golden.

When I decided to release Starbright Stars pattern as a stand-alone pattern (at last!) and offer a sew-along this fall, I also got to thinking that it would be the perfect time to encore Angled class. This way you can choose from two ways of sewing-along in September. Angled class is ideal for developing quilters who want to really master angled patchwork piecing skills. You will grow to understand the why’s behind what works and to be able to put those principles into practice in your own designs, rather than always needing to rely on a pattern or detailed instructions.

some projects included in this course:

Is Angled Class for you?

I've designed this new online course for the confident beginner or intermediate quilter.  Prerequisites are basic cutting and piecing skills, with experience sewing rectangles, squares and rows.  The class has 3 main elements:

  • {Piecing Skills} learn to accurately piece ANY angle, from classics like the diamond to compound angular blocks, and truly any random triangle shape

  • {Design Skills} understand how to incorporate equilateral triangles, diamonds, half square triangles and flying geese into your own original quilts

  • {Scrappy Skills} enjoy using triangular scraps from our projects in playful, liberated quilt blocks


This is a class for all quilters.


It's for developing quilters, ready to stretch their wings beyond the basics.  It's for more experienced quilters, interested in expressing themselves in original designs or curious about liberated piecing.  It's for all lovers of traditional quilt blocks, young and old.  And I hope it will be for you!

Here are some links, if you’d like take a close look at the quilts of Angled Class - - -

Indian Blanket - a playful study in equilateral triangles.

Emerge - a really, truly easy lonestar quilt composed of 45 degree diamonds.

Starbright - an entirely machine pieced 6-point star, relying on a clever combination of triangles and diamonds

Cascade - at twist on the classic flying geese block

Tangential - a cumulative queen-sized quilt, utilizing all the skills we'll study during class!

If you are interested in refining your relationship with angles, I hope you’ll join us.  You can reserve your spot now!

p.s. If you’re a fan of my last finish - Tangential Stars quilt - that block can only be accessed as a part of Angled class. I created the block originally for the queen-sized Tangential quilt, but its incarnation in throw-sized Tangential Stars is pretty darn fabulous.

There, now you have the perfect excuse. ;) You’re welcome.
