CPQ Classes


Classes & Workshops


The Bargello design was originally seen in needlepoint chairs at the Bargello Palace in Italy. It dates back to the Renaissance. We are so fortunate to have modern ways to use these designs. Our piecing techniques create the illusion of depth and movement in these quilts. There are actually two different ways to piece Bargello Quilts, and you’ll have the option of choosing one of these techniques in class! Book Required for Class: Jelly Roll Bargello Quilts is available at CPQ

Cost: $ 60.00

This class uses a new technique to make this classic quilt. It is one of my favorite quilts to gift to young adults and those on their way to college. Pick their favorite colors and put it together! It wears like iron. These directions use a technique that is so accurate and, combined with new pressing and weighting techniques, is a joy to put together. It is a quilt that everyone should make at least once; but I guarantee you will make more than one!
