Conquer That Pesky Y Seam!




Strip Pieced Lily Block
July 27, 10 AM - 4PM

Instructor - Becky Stowers

The next quilt class at the Barn is a strip pieced lily block, with an appliqued stem and leaf.  Block construction includes diamond shaped pieces, with Y seams, a great technique to learn.

Make the pieced version, or make the block using plain fabric, or make both versions and combine in your quilt.





 Inspired by a block from Edyta Sitar of Laundry Basket Quilts.

Fabrics:
You will need  fabrics  for the petals and the leaves and stem.
If you want to make the strip pieced version, you will need 1" strips in in a variety of colors.  You can also use unpieced fabric for the petals.  Stripes can work well for this. Bring a variety of greens for stems and leaves. We will not be exchanging fabric this time.
