Description:  This workshop is based on a quilt from Jan's latest book, Quick Star Quilts. (Come to Jan's book signing party where you can meet her and have her autograph your book! Or, if you can't make it, call Quilter's Paradise at 760-738-9677 up until the day before the book signing event to order your own autographed book.)

This beautiful design is based upon the historic Signal Lights block. It’s updated with large-scale blocks, quickly cut with the Fast2Cut rulers, and a “faux piecing” technique to create the smaller triangles. Simplified blocks at the outer edges create a border effect. This throwsized quilt features 16 blocks, and could easily be enlarged for a quick stash-busting bed quilt!

Collect a wide range of scraps, fat quarters or small pieces of fabric in your favorite color combinations. Suggestion: one group of fabrics is primarily dark value, and the 2nd group is light-to-medium value. If you are interested in trying the technique and want a quick achievable project that you can finish in one day, create a Harbor Lights Table runner from 3 or 4 blocks! The table runners provide a great small project to practice your machine or hand quilting, and make ideal gifts for family and friends.
