Big Ocean Quilt
Big Ocean Quilt
PLAY WITH COLOR AND VALUE IN THIS CLASSIC QUILT DESIGN MADE MODERN!
The Big Ocean pattern teaches you fundamental quilting skills including finessing diagonal seams, managing bias, aligning points & pressing management.
This pattern uses a simple block and is great for beginners, but is tons of fun for more advanced quilters looking to dive into design.
The on-demand video course builds on the pattern and takes you along step-by-step as Tara sews up a complete lap sized quilt.
Big Ocean is all about color and design! Sew along with the video course as Tara takes you through her thought process of building a color palette and designing a layout.
ON-DEMAND VIDEO COURSE
You can't put everything in a written pattern! Choose the Pattern with Video Course option to get access to 8 in-depth video lessons where Tara sews through each step of the pattern and includes all the tips & tricks you get in an in-person class.
Video courses are on-demand lessons hosted on Thinkific and content never expires. Watch the videos as often as you like or whenever you need a refresher. Leave comments in the platform to get help if you get stuck on a step in the pattern.
