Instructor: Carla Klop
Instructor Bio: For almost 30 years Carla made all her quilts by hand - and only discovered the rotary cutter in 2005! Recognizing how much faster making quilts would become, her ideas just went wild. There wasn't enough time to complete all these quilts without finding ways to go faster. So this resulted in Shortcut Sheets - an accident discovered by breaking the rules. Carla's patterns have been published numerous times in American Quilter magazine. She teaches her methods internationally and can be contacted via her website KitsByCarla.com.
