The quilt class is for those with little or no experience.  Each beginner class starts with the making of a baby or lap quilt, using the Rail Fence pattern.
 

In the process of making a quilt, you will learn fabric selection, cutting, sewing, piecing, quilting, binding and machine or hand quilting.
 

Safety & Good Ergonomics is instructed in the use of rotary cutters, rulers, tables and machines.
 

Fabric selection is conducted one of two ways, once you have signed up for the beginners class you will be given the Rail Fence quilt pattern to take to a quilt/fabric store near you and have them assist you with selecting the fabric.
 

First class day will be reading the pattern, learning to cut & press, sewing a ¼ inch seam, piecing of the blocks, which on an average will be 9-18 blocks depending on the students progression and instruction on quilt layout.

 

Your Rail Fence Quilt should be completed within 3 class segments of 3 hours each.


My background is that of 8 years experience, using Singer, Brother, Viking, Janome, HQ16 Handi-Quilter and others.

Student requirements:

  • Provide your own machine and bring your instruction manual

  • You will need a ¼” foot and a walking foot

  • Fabric and Pattern

  • Neutral Sewing Thread – 1 spool

Students without portable machines, notify me prior to taking the class, so we may work out details to have a portable machine first class day.
 

 

Class scheduling is 3 weeks, 3 hours each session, which is rotating based on the end of the previous class.  In fairness to other students, classes will be held as scheduled and on time, unless majority of class agrees to a change.  Make up classes are available by request.


 

Machine Quilting of an existing quilt is .01 penny per inch, plus the cost of thread for an all over design of loops and swirls or meandering.

 

Beginning Quilting Classes, $25 for 3 hours
