Absolute Basics Workshop Patchwork Quilting for beginners
Saturday September 11th, 2010 Fee £37 |
Absolute Basics - Patchwork
Quilting class for beginners
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! This is the prefect way to get involved in quilting or to re-discover it, so please join in! |

Finishing Your Quilt Saturday
October 2nd 2010 Fee £37 Sorry, fully booked |
During this finishing class you will
make a small quilt from one piece of fabric (we won’t have time to learn piecing
as that step is covered during the absolute basics class). The emphases is on
learning to layer the quilt top, wadding and backing, then quilt it and finally
bind it. You will learn to make straight and bias binding and also learn
how to attach it to your quilt. The aim is to give the quilter enough knowledge and confidence to finish their "real" quilt project at home. Hence we are making practise pieces, as it would be impossible to finish a larger project during these four hours. |

 Tikki has basic sewing machines which you may borrow for £5/class during workshops if required. Please note that our machines do not have walking (even feed) feet. They are only suitable for piecing. But if you can, do bring your own, as it is always easier to work with a machine you are familiar with and not waste time learning to use a new machine.
