HAND-QUILTING
How many of you have fond memories of watching a family member, or friend, make a quilt by hand? If you’ve ever longed to learn this art form, now is the time! Please join us as I take you on an adventure into the history of quilt-making from the perspective of the ancestors. In this hands-on course, students will learn how to cut, piece, and hand-quilt fabrics together by hand using a needle and thread. Note: Students will need to purchase their supplies. A complete supply list will be provided.
During the first class, we will discuss what kinds of fabrics, batting, thread are needed for this course and the quantities to purchase.
