Kookaburra

TUTOR: MIRIAM POST-DAM

The Kookaburra is an exciting new design created especially for the AQC 2026 by Legit Kits.

It is a full pattern Foundation Paper Piecing project. Finished size will be 30 inches x 40 inches consisting of 16 blocks.

You will be learning how to read the pattern, where to start, how to organise this project, most logical steps in working these patterns, cutting and sewing techniques for FPP and how it all comes together.

We will start on an easy block and also tackle a difficult block. Outcome after two days is that you will have completed four blocks and are confident in doing the rest at home.

Skill level: Suits all but will be more catered towards foundation piecing beginners.
