Fab Lab Fabric + Quilt
Quilting can seem entirely overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be when you know the steps it takes to make one!
Join our beginner-friendly class to learn the basics of quilt construction, and come away from class with a mini quilt and the knowledge to keep going on your happy quilting pathway.
Yes, there is a lot to absorb at first, but these skills are the baseline for feeling confident about stepping out on your own, making the quilts you'd like to make.
You will learn:
- Reading a quilt pattern
- Measuring and piecing your quilt
- Machine-quilting with a walking foot
- Cutting and measuring your pieces
- Measuring batting
- Basting your quilt
- Binding your quilt
You will come away with a beautiful mini quilt that you can use and admire as a placemat, piece of art, or whatever else you can think of!
Level:
- Confident Beginner — for adults and teens (13 and up) who are comfortable using a sewing machine.
What you need:
- Yourself (we provide everything, including materials and sewing machines).
