One Day Rapid Fire Hunters Star Table Runner or Placemat Version

Come on in and Rita will lead you through how to use the ruler to get fabulous points every time! You will be amazed and will be so proud of your finished project with this approach. This time, you will be creating a Table Runner OR will have the opportunity to rather create Placemats. How awesome would this be to have these done for your holiday table!
The technique you will be taught in this class takes advantage of the Deb Tucker approach to quilting different types of blocks by using a specialty ruler for trimming and creating. With this approach, you will create a perfect star every time. No lost corners, no gap for other corners. Come learn this approach and technique and see the magic how this technique improves the quality of your blocks. This tool and Deb Tucker's technique provides for streamlined construction and the magic happens when you do your precision trim down of each block. The ruler you will use to get these results is the Rapid-Fire Petite Hunter's Star Ruler. If you have the book from the first class, you can use it again. If not, the book that will be used is the Hidden Treasurers by Deb Tucker, which is not a mandatory purchase as Rita will guide you through the creation of these blocks. The books just provides you more instruction and more help when you finish at home.
