What makes quilting with Studio 180
principles and rulers so exciting?
Innovation in Traditional Quilt Construction
Traditional quilt construction has suffered
from a reputation for having inaccessible,
complicated blocks with limited creative
opportunities. However, with her exciting
new ruler series, Deb Tucker of Studio 180
Design is revolutionizing the art of
traditional quilting. Based on the simple
principle of making units larger and
squaring them up, piecing traditional quilt
tops has become easier and more precise.

Creative Potential You Never Thought
Possible
Deb Tucker’s rulers are also making
traditional quilting more versatile, opening
opportunities for creative design
previously inaccessible to the novice
quilter. With her broad comprehension of
traditional quilting, colour theory, and
piecing techniques Carla is uniquely
qualified to facilitate your creative process
using Deb Tucker rulers.

THE CLASS
In this “Tuckerized” version of a traditional Carolina Lily wall hanging, there are no “y”-seams to
sew and no need for paper piecing. Quilters will learn to work with the Carolina Lily block using
Deb Tucker’s Wing Clipper 1 ruler and Studio 180 principles of making units larger and trimming
to the exact size. With multiple techniques covered during this class, new design possibilities
and exciting opportunities for creativity are opened once quilters master the primary
construction methods. By the end of the class, quilters will be well on their way to completing
the Carolina Lily wall-hanging.
