In this class ZJ Humbach introduces you to this fun fabric innovation. Learn what Precuts are, what advantages they offer, and how you can even make your own.

Precuts, while fun, come with their own special considerations. ZJ will help you avoid time-consuming and frustrating mistakes by giving you the tips and tricks for working with a variety of precuts. Learn which ones play nicely together and which ones don’t along with some effective work around solutions.

ZJ takes you through some “what if” scenarios and shows you how Precuts can save oodles of time when you are working from patterns in books or magazines that are designed for yardage or fat quarters.

After taking this class you will be ready for our class project: Red Hot Hearts Quilt. Grab a Jelly Roll and a Layer Cake and maybe even a Charm Pack and get quilting! The bonus project puts together everything you’ve learned in the class. You’ll have great fun working with Precuts and have confidence knowing that the fabrics coordinate perfectly on your scrappy wall or baby quilt. You’ll also learn two fun techniques: raw-edge applique and strip piecing.
