9am-3:30pm PST (half hour lunch break)

Have you ever wanted to make a Mariner’s Compass block but were too intimidated? Not a fan of paper piecing or using tedious templates? You’ll love this class for learning how to make 16-point compass blocks in 16 different sizes using Robin Ruth Design’s rulers and strip-piecing method! Join Robin and learn all the compass basics for making either a Skinny Robin or Fat Robin mariner’s compass block, and for all the finishing techniques from the centers to finishing into your project.

Once you learn how to use my rulers and strip-piecing technique, you will be free to move on to one of the many patterns and projects made using this ruler system!

Students get to choose which kind of compass they will make - Skinny Robin (pictured below top) or Fat Robin (pictured below bottom). We will make an OctaCompass block and then finish the center and into a project ready square.

6 hour Zoom class with two 2 1/2-3 hour sessions on the same day. Once paid, a supply list and Zoom link will be emailed to you. Each student will use either the Skinny Robin or Fat Robin 16-Point Mariner’s Compass Book and Ruler Combo for class - this is NOT included in the workshop price. Please purchase this off my website or at your local quilt shop if you do not already have one. Please do not purchase on Amazon. Even though it may say Robin Ruth Design, these are third-party sellers and I can not guarantee what you will be shipped.
