104S Suikerbossie Friday 5th July
Dewald Compion 
Session: 2 x 3hr
Level: Beginner
 
Dewald likes everything quilting. He loves beautiful fabric, designing quilts, piecing quilts, quilting 
quilts, writing patterns and, most of all, connecting with other quilters. He finds inspiration for quilts 
everywhere and recently started using nature to print his own fabric.
As a medical doctor, he treats patients every day. But when he goes home, quilting is his therapy 
and his happy place.
 
DETAILED COURSE DESCRIPTION:
This workshop combines two of Dewald’s favourites in quilting – proteas and foundation paper 
piecing. Master the technique of FPP in this one-day practical workshop suitable for quilters of any 
level. You will make four 9” x 9” blocks of his Suikerbos FPP protea design to make a finished quilt 
top of 18” x 18”, the perfect size for a mini wall quilt, a pillow or a tote bag. Or it could be the 
starting blocks to make a bed quilt.
Don’t be intimidated by FPP. Join Dewald for a fun day of exploring different ways of doing FPP and 
learning how to read FPP patterns. He will show you which tools to use and teach you some of the 
tricks of this method. He’ll share his tips to ensure that you leave with confidence in your newlyacquired FPP skills which you can use in future projects.
Included in class: Suikerbos FPP pattern and templates pdf document.
