    Who should take this mini course?

    Anyone who wants to improve their quilt design skills, and increase their confidence in their design work. While you don't need to slavishly follow the laid down principles of design, you do need to understand what they are in order to make your quilts express what you want.

    When you finish this mini course you will be able to recognise the elements and principles of design as they relate to quilts, and produce some exercise samples using these design principles.
