Important note about the required materials:
When making our first quilt, it can be tempting to use the tools we have at home. However, it is important to know that the tools used will have a significant impact on the accuracy of the project and that accuracy is critical when making a quilt. The use of a rotary cutter, a ruler and a cutting mat becomes essential.
