Supplies:
--If you would like, set up an appointment with Nancy to pick out your fabric before the first class. She will help you find the perfect fabrics. If you choose to pick your own fabrics, for a wall hanging, the star fabrics need be know more then 6 or 8 fabric, approx. 1/3 yard. For larger quilts you can use up to 11 fabrics, approx. ½ yard each. The background fabric should not be chosen until the stars are done, so please try to hold off picking this until the second session.
