Introduction to Quilting

dscn9425Get started in quilting with this fun intro class! In the two-hour session, you’ll learn the basics of rotary cutting techniques, simple piecing, construction and binding of a small quilt. We’ll also go into some of the history of quiltmaking, types of quilts and sewing techniques, and try a small hands-on project that you can use in your home or give as a gift.

This first class is a pilot to test interest, but we hope to add more classes soon after on how to use color,  more complex piecing and quilting techniques, and graduating to bigger projects such as wall hangings, baby quilts and lap quilts in a variety of patterns.

Instructor: Anne Smyers

Class time: 1 session, 2 – 2.5 hours

Maximum class size: 6 people

Supplies required: None (everything included)

Prerequisites: Intro to sewing or knowledge of how to operate a sewing machine
