Make an entire quilt from beginning to end in Laura's Learn to Quilt - Six Week Series. We'll be making the beginner-friendly Yellow Brick Road quilt from Atkinson Designs.
Level: Confident Beginner on Up
I learned to sew by learning to quilt! This class welcomes the very beginners. If you have never used a sewing machine before, I ask that you take class prior to learn the basics of a sewing machine, but newbies are welcome. This class is also perfect for the confident sewist who is ready to try the waters of quilting.
Price: $220.00
The cost of the class includes twelve + hours of instruction in a small group setting, use of our sewing studio, machines, tools, and the pattern. You are welcome to bring your own sewing machine, however, we have six sewing machines and special sewing machine feet for this project in the shop classroom. This class will require "homework". If you do not own a sewing machine, you can can rent time on our machines for a discounted class hourly rate.
Fabric is not included in the price of the class. Should you purchase fabric from the shop, you'll receive 20% off. Though you can make whichever size you want, I recommend making the baby size (48" x 57") of this quilt which calls for six fat quarters for the top, 1 & 3/8 yard for border and binding, and three yards of backing.
Time: Thursdays, 5:30pm - 7:30pm., 7/31, 8/7, 8/14, 8/21, 8/28 & 9/4.
Feel free to bring your dinner and/or snacks. Note: we do not offer make-ups for series unless there is something that causes a cancellation of the class. Should you need to skip a class, ask your instructor for options.
