You must bring your own sewing machine.  It must be in good working order and you need to be familiar with how your machine works.

This class teaches how to make your very first quilt using machine piecing.  This class is for beginners and covers an introduction to basic quilting tools, as well as techniques to keep you happy and healthy while starting your quilt journey.

Some of the subjects addressed will be:

• Rotary cutting - blades, mats, and rulers
• Needles and Thread - sizes, weight, and usage
• Proper pressing techniques
• Quilting Ergonomics - take care of your body as well as you take care of your quilt
• Chain piecing
• Sashing
• How to square up uneven blocks
• And many more tips and tricks as time allows

This quilt requires attending one class session.  The class will be about 4 hours long.  You will need to purchase a kit, which contains all the fabric and fairy panels for the top, from this website.  Three different styles of kits are available:  Yellow, Pink, or Blue.  In the class we will go over how to cut your strips, starting the chain piecing process, and pressing techniques that won't distort your blocks.  You will be guided through the construction of your top in the design you choose.  We will build the entire quilt top in class. 

The total cost of the class is $45.00 and must be paid in full before the first session.  That price is only for the lesson and does not include materials.  The kits which contain all the fabric for the top and binding are $45.00.  You will need to purchase thread, batting, and a fabric to use for the backing to finish your quilt. 

You are welcome to contact me if you have any questions about the class.
