Absolute Basics - Patchwork Quilting class for beginners

This is the prefect way to get involved in quilting or to re-discover it, so please join in!

This is a beginners' class involving basic machine and/or hand constructed quilt techniques. All basic tools & techniques will be covered. You will construct a small quilt or at least start one & you would have acquired enough knowledge to continue at home, so in other words this workshop should give you enough confidence to create a quilt top of your very own!

Continue with a project you have already started - this workshop will assist with finishing it!

Disappearing Nine Patch
Patchwork Quilt Class

Suitable for all levels

Saturday July 10th, 2010
from 10.30am to 2.30pm

Fee £35

Requirements list - please click here!

This is a very clever design where blocks look as if they have been pieced from loads of small pieces and that's what we would like everyone else to think - how clever we are!  In reality you will only have to make an easy block and sprinkle a little magic dust and voila a stunning quilt design has appeared.

Join us for this fun class - the quilt is quick to make if machine pieced and can be finished to a variety of sizes.

This class is suitable for all levels and great for beginners as well..  So if you can sew and maybe have done the absolute beginners' class, then this class is great fun to continue to learn the craft.
