Beginning Quilting Class
We will cover all the basics of quilting that include cutting, piecing the quilt top, quilting the sandwich and binding. This pattern lends itself to multi-colored, scrappy, or elegant fabric choices.
Class will be from 10:00 - 2:30 so we can enjoy a half hour lunch break. Please bring a brown bag lunch or snack to keep you going!
Supply list:
1. Basic Sewing Supplies
Sewing machine in good working order
1/4" foot if you have one,
Cutting mat, rotary cutter & ruler

We will help you pick your fabrics, and if you are really a beginner, help you with the quilting tools you will need to be successful.
