Beginners quilt as you go session. Come along and learn a simple way to make a beginners quilt using the quilt as you go method. All you need to be able to do for this workshop is to sew a straight line on your machine.
You will be taught how to use a rotary cutter and mat to cut your blocks and also how to add batting and backing to these. With some simple quilting lines these blocks can become a fabulous quilt and you can complete this easily on a domestic machine. A walking foot for your machine will be needed. The blocks are attached using a simple sashing on the back and the front of the blocks. This can then be connected in rows and columns to make a lovely quilt.
You will need to purchase some fabrics for this session, the list will be sent out once you have booked and paid in advance. As this is a sampler style quilt it makes sense to purchase a range of colours that will work together as a theme. You will be given a basic guide to help plan with this before the session.
The session cost for this will be £50 to include refreshments.
In this session you will learn to make up to three different blocks that you can then continue to make at home. If you want to learn how to finish off your quilt there will be another session later this year where you can learn to bind your quilts. You will be expected to complete further blocks in your own time following this session to make a full quilt. Guidance and assistance will be given during the day and available after the event by email contact.
Spaces are limited to 10 at this venue so please add your name as 'Going' here if you want a place and email me for booking and payment details at [email protected]
