Beginning Quilting 101- 3 yard Quilts

Learn all the basic steps to make your first quilt! In this class you will learn rotary cutting, 1/4" seam piecing, and borders.  Note: in this class we will be using a 3-yard bundle and a pattern out of the Easy Peasy 3-Yard Quilts book.

In this single-all day class, we will complete the quilt top only. You can choose how to finish your quilt with our longarm quilting services, or by taking one of our upcoming classes on hand or machine quilting and binding.
