2 DAY WORKSHOP

The classic kaleidoscope quilt layout gives the illusion of curves and circles yet the blocks are stitched with straight seams! With only two different shapes to cut the kaleidoscope block is ideally suited for scrappy quilts.

Not keen on scrappy quilts? Choose the two fabric option of one light & one dark fabric.

Once you have mastered cutting and stitching the kaleidoscope block, the design possibilities are endless.
