The "Zipper" Quilt Workshop: Get Your Shift Together

Supply List Download

Are you tired of quilts that just... sit there? Do you crave a project with the kinetic energy of a caffeinated squirrel? Welcome to the Zipper workshop, featuring the iconic pattern by Melissa Milligan.

This isn’t your grandma’s "stay inside the lines" kind of quilt. It’s a geometric riot that proves the shortest distance between two points is a very stylish zigzag. We’re stripping away the floral fluff and getting down to the sharp, sleek business of the tilt. If you’ve ever wanted your sewing room to feel like a high-speed chase, this is the pattern for you.

What’s on the Cutting Mat:

• The "Leaning" Strategy: Master the art of 2, 4, and 8 at a time Half Square Triangles.

• Pointy Business: How to align those shifts so perfectly that your friends will swear you used a laser level (we won't tell them the truth).

• It's Hip to Be Square: Learn how to trim your HST's to near perfection.

This Class is for You if:

• You believe right angles are "too mainstream."

• You want a finished product that looks incredibly complex but secretly relies on a very clever, repeatable rhythm.

• You enjoy the satisfying "click" of a pattern coming together faster than a weekend DIY project gone wrong.

• 1 yard of something light (not as a feather but you know...)

• 1 yard of something dark (dark chocolate only counts as a snack)

• The Pattern: Zipper for Villa Rosa Designs

• Sewing machine

• Something to eat
