Make a simple, whole cloth (non-pieced) quilt in a single day! This would make a lovely gift! You’re welcome to make your quilt in either a holiday fabric or any print that you like!
You Will Learn How To:
Use a rotary cutter, ruler and mat
How to create a quilt sandwich and stitch it together
How to bind a quilt
This Class Is For You If:
You are 16 or older
You can thread your machine, wind a bobbin, select stitches, and sew a straight line.
You Need To Bring:
1.5 meters of two quilting cottons (one for the quilt top, one for the backing)
Throw sized batting (minimum size 1.5 meters/60” by 1.15 meters/45”)
½ meter of quilting cotton for binding
Two spools of thread: one that either contrasts or blends with your fabrics for the decorative stitching AND one that blends with your binding fabric
(No dollar store or vintage threads, please, as these are liable to break!)
Your sewing machine, if you have one and want to bring it! (Don’t forget your pedal, manual, and a couple of empty bobbins). You will likely also need a walking foot. If you need info about this, send me a message!
