Learn To Quilt: Level 1
Our Learn to Quilt 1 program will introduce you to quilting with a sewing machine and rotary cutter.
Learn the fundamentals of quilting as you make a baby or lap size quilt. After you construct your first quilt will you have the skills and knowledge to continue quilting and even move on to more advanced techniques. Our instructor and staff will help you choose fabrics at the first class; a fabric kit for baby (39” x 48”) or lap (61” x 61”) will be prepared from your selections!
