Learn to perfect triangle based blocks!

Triangle School is the perfect next step after BQA or for anyone who would love to master triangle based blocks. Together we will create a Mosaic Star quilt from start to finish while learning all the skills & techniques needed to sew perfect points. Best of all, once complete, this course opens the door to making any triangle based quilt pattern with precision! 

Welcome to Triangle School!

Triangle School is an "advanced beginner" quilting course that covers a variety of techniques for someone who is looking to either sharpen their skills or learn new methods altogether. After chatting with Beginner Quilting Academy graduates, it became clear that most beginner quilters are excited yet intimidated by the various kinds of patchwork triangles. This lead me to design a quilt pattern that uses 4 common types of triangles + other helpful skills mixed in which really creates the perfect modern "sampler" style quilt. Mosaic Star is a great project to learn and practice in a structured and guided atmosphere. Sound fun? Read on!

You might be here because...

  • You feel frustrated that your triangles lose their points once sewn together. 
  • You would love all of your triangle based quilts to have clean crisp edges & points. 
  • You would love for someone to walk you through step-by-step while sharing little tips and tricks along the way.
  • You appreciate learning new techniques that grow your quilt making skills.
  • You would like to have the Half Rectangle Triangles demystified!

You're in the right place! I'm so excited to teach you all of the skills and techniques that grow your quilting skills and open doors in quilt making. These are skills that you will carry with you and build upon for the rest of your life. Let's get started!

By the end of this course you will...

  • Learn about methods and strategies to choose fabrics for your quilts.
  • Learn how to confidently read cutting charts and diagrams.
  • Discover how to assess your seam allowance and make necessary tweaks.
  • Feel confident with strip piecing.
  • Gain knowledge of how to create and properly trim half square triangles, flying geese, half rectangle triangles and diamond in a square units - no templates or specialty rulers needed!
  • Learn about nesting seams and how to create them within your quilt.
  • Confidently prepare your quilt top for quilting while keeping everything smooth and flat.
  • Develop a quilting plan while brainstorming various quilting ideas.
  • Learn how to finish your quilt using a walking foot and simple straight stitch.
  • Have a finished Mosaic Star quilt to show off to friends and family.
  • Receive a completed copy of the pattern so that you can make it again!

Here's what students have to say:

"Triangle School was a phenomenal learning experience for me!"

As a lifelong sewist but beginner quilter, I very much appreciate the thoughtfulness and organization of each lesson. I ended up making both a modern and a traditional version and love them both!

ERIN M.

"Both experienced quilters and newbies can walk away with new skills."

Triangle School is the perfect next level after BQA! The lessons are really thorough but totally understandable and casual. Brittany has a wonderful teaching style that makes it fun to tune in to each lesson.

KIM M.

"I absolutely LOVE how the quilt turned out!"

I Ioved this class so much! It was so helpful to go through each step with a visual in the videos. I learned that I had been making extra work for myself by doing cutting/trimming slightly wrong. I had several “oh! That’s how you do it!” moments!

JAMIE C. 

"Well worth the money!  Awesome class!"

"I loved this class. I have been quilting for many years and learned so much. Brittany shared a lot of information and tricks. Hoping more classes will be offered!

Quilting has brought me so much joy, and I know that it will do the same for you! This hobby is not only exciting and fun, but creating something with your hands is deeply fulfilling. Not to mention, connecting with other's in the community is the icing on the cake!  Quilts are meant to last for generations....in fact, I still use and love the quilts that grandmother made for me and my family. It makes me excited to think that I'm also creating heirlooms that will be passed down in my family for many years to come. I hope that you'll join me inside so that we can create beautiful heirlooms together!

If we haven't already met, my name is Brittany and I am the owner, designer and educator behind Lo & Behold Stitchery. I have been designing quilt patterns since 2017 and teaching online quilting classes since 2021. Before quilting, I was a Neonatal ICU nurse for 7+ years, where I especially enjoyed the teaching aspect of the role. It was here that I discovered my love for meeting others where they are to transform their skillset and knowledge in a way that may not initially seem possible. 

Now, as a online educator and  designer, I am honored to have a similar role in the lives of others. We've had thousands of students go through our online quilting courses and the transformation is always so inspiring. Through bite-size lessons and thoughtful curriculum, I have put so much care and thought into our program and I would love to see you inside!
