Whether your interest is in conventional or contemporary quilt stylings this is the place to learn the basics of quilt making from start to finish. We'll begin with rotary cutting and sewing an accurate 1/4" seam, then move on to piecing, layering, quilting and binding. Leave class with functional knowledge of the entire process of this enduring art form. Class makes one crib sized quilt! When you purchase your fabric and supplies from us, we’ll throw in the book of quilt patterns used in this class for free!
