I have 2 options for this workshop - a table runner size or a lap quilt size. I've created samples in each size. Below are photos. Scroll down and you will find the cutting instructions for each one. I'll have full instructions for creating the quilts at the workshop.
Here is the top for the table runner (I thought it would be fun to have a table runner for Valentine's day!).
Here is the top for the lap quilt size.
