X-Plus Quilt with Jan Krentz
Learn to make this very popular, historic X-Plus block. The repeating block creates both a vertical-horizontal grid (the “plus sign” or upright cross) and a diagonal corner-to-corner pattern (the “x”).
This one-day workshop will cover fabric selection, cutting tips for both traditional rotary-cut block components AND Accuquilt die cutting, layout strategies and construction techniques.
BONUS! This event will feature:
- Jerre Mayer and Jan LaGrone will demonstrate AccuQuilt dies and techniques to create the same blocks with Accuquilt pre-cut shapes
- Learn to sew Jan’s original X-Plus variation called “Orange Peel X–Plus”.
- Confident Beginners and above are welcome!
- This quilt is “pre-cut” friendly!
DURING THE EVENT:
- Students will create a standard 10” X-Plus block, and
- A 10” Orange Peel X-Plus block.
- Learn proper AccuQuilt die-cutting techniques to create the blocks.
- Time permitting, students may create as many blocks as they desire.
- Class handouts will feature a variety of quilt design layouts in multiple sizes, and students are encouraged to create color schemes for their future quilt.
