Building Blocks - Beginners & Beyond

Teaching techniques and skills to make pieced blocks, half-square triangles, flying geese, log cabin, etc. Blocks can be made into small quilt or bed runner. Finishing techniques taught, as well. Each block can alternatively be repeated into it's own quilt of larger size, if desired. This class is for students who have sewn, but want to learn quilting. Are you ready to jump in?

Each class stands on its own as to what is taught.  $25 a class.  You will learn a different quilting skill each class.  It takes 8 classes to go though them all. 

#1 Basic Cutting & Piecing
#2 Half Square Triangles
#3 Quarter Square Triangles

Patrice Meffley teaches Free-Motion Machine Quilting if you want to learn to quilt your project yourself.  Otherwise, you can choose to have me quilt it on my longarm for you.

The April 2019 classes will be Flying Geese and Y-Seams/Partial Seams.  May 2019 will be Sashing/Cornerstones and Borders.   July 2019 will start the session again for Basic Cutting / Piecing and Half-Square Triangles. You can start at any time if you are not a beginner and want to brush up on your skills.  Beginners are better to start at the beginning.

Plan on being at class by 10:15 at the latest, so you can spend the full two hours learning and sewing.
