CLASSES BY TUTOR

In this Beginning Quilting Class, I will introduce you to the fundamental skills and techniques of machine piecing and quilting, including sewing machine basics, fabric basics, accurate fabric cutting, machine piecing, machine quilting, and binding.  We will be making a lap-size quilt from start to finish.   This class is ideal for ages 10 and up, though younger students are welcome with parental supervision.  We will be using sharp cutting tools and hot irons.  There will be basic sewing supplies to borrow for the class, but if you have a sewing machine to bring, please do! There will only be two machines available to use at this time.  During the first class, we will review how to select fabric to be purchased, but if you would like to plan ahead, there are two size choices: 32”x32” or 41”x41”.
