Event Date:
Event Time:
Event Location:
The Sewing Lair
Class Description:
Quilting is a colourful and addictive pastime that often involves cutting up large pieces of fabric into smaller pieces and sewing them together in a different way! Sometimes even with a pattern!
If you’ve never tried it and you want to, then this is the class for you. If you’ve tried it and it didn’t quite work, then come along and have another go.
Please bring basic quilting tools if you have them: a rotary cutter (45mm), a cutting mat and a quilt ruler – 4 ½” by 12” or 14” is a great size. Please feel free to bring your own sewing machine as this is the machine you’re familiar with using. Feel free to bring any quilting fabric that’s been stashed in your cupboard waiting for inspiration or a project that you’ve started and not finished. All welcome!!
Classes will include:
- how to co-ordinate colours in a project
- how to read quilt patterns
- cutting and matching fabrics
- ‘quilting terms’ you may not see in general sewing instructions
- tools to make quilting easier
- creating patterns with basic block shapes
and most importantly, understanding that you can make your own ‘rules’ in your own projects!
General Information:
