Our first ever LIVE Quilt-Along weekend kicks off with an introduction to your host, Angela Walters. She'll walk you through how to prep for the exciting weekend ahead including how to set up your space and get started with piecing. Plus, Angela will be announcing a special surprise for all viewers!
Getting Started

Angela begins by teaching you how to use expand-a-quilt patterns to make the Good Life quilt in one of three sizes: throw, twin or queen. Then, learn how to cut accurate, mirror-image diamonds and sort your pieces for streamlined sewing.
Angela Walters LIVE: Wine Q&A

After a long day of quilting, pour a glass of wine and sip with Angela. Here's your chance to ask her all your burning questions. From free motion to fabric to parenting, nothing is off limits!
Sewing Y- Seams

Y-seams are nothing to fear; they're simply partial seams that end before the edge of the fabric. In this lesson, see how to sew diamond units together with Y-seams and avoid common mistakes as you make the Goose Tracks unit.
