A Smidge Better Quilt

A re-written version of the Smidge pattern becomes a Smidge Better! Using eight rows instead of five, with easier cutting and assembly directions makes this your new go-to quilt for children and adults alike. Dorinda has made many versions
of this quilt and wants to share tips with you. In addition, she will teach you how to handle directional fabrics, half square triangle points, and scrappy bindings. A fun and easy class you will not want to miss!
