CLASSES ON ZOOM!
QUILT A TABLE TOP RUNNER! Sunday 21st February, 10-4pm, £45
Carol and Susan are ready for a fabulous day teaching intermediate quilting via Zoom on Sunday 21st February. Learn to make pieces for a stunning table topper/table runner (different from patchwork featured above, new images coming soon!)
In this class you will learn how to cut accurate triangles that won’t stretch, use these shapes to make the blocks, add sashing to the blocks, a border and binding. You will create the quilt sandwich and get it ready for quilting. Different quilting techniques will be demonstrated for you to experiment with in your own time. This quilt is inspired by a Moda workshop online. Carol and Susan will demonstrate each step of the quilt making process before you put the techniques into practice in the workshop. Materials can be chosen beforehand from our online shop which stocks everything you need to make this stunning piece or you can provide your own materials.

If you need help with a sewing, patchwork, mending, knitting or crochet project whilst we are closed we are very happy to offer individual one-on-one video tuition and guidance (via Zoom) with our teachers in any of the sewing, knitting and crochet disciplines at £20 an hour tuition.
