Classroom
Requirements
Preferred Classroom Table Setup
Caryl's series of "Illusion" quilts explore
the illusion of overlapping transparent triangles. In
this class each student will construct a small sample
16" x 22" rectangle, to learn the basic concept
behind the Illusion quilts. This can be made into a 24"
x 30" wall quilt, with the addition of an optional
border. Once you have learned the basic techniques you
will be able to develop your own variations on Illusions.
