Quilting For Beginners



DescriptionIf you have always wanted to dive into the world of quilting, then this three-part series is the perfect 
introduction for you. This course will go over all of the basics such as quilting terminology, rotary cutter use, 
ruler/mat work, common quilt blocks, and more! 

*For summer 2023 - we are doing two 3-part classes.  Each class will work on 6 DIFFERENT blocks so if you are able to join both sessions, you can get 6 different blocks.  If you can only join one session, that's fine!  If you can join both sessions, you won't get any repeats!
 
Materials: 
Rotary cutter (45 mm) 
6” by 24” ruler  
3.5” by 12.5” ruler (optional) 
Fabric scissors  
Seam ripper 
Pins 
¼” foot for your machine (optional, but highly recommended for accuracy) 
Neutral thread (I use AurifilGuterman or Mettler) 
Extra bobbins on hand for your machine 
Small iron/pressing mat (optional) 
24” by 36” cutting mat (you can get a slightly smaller one, but this is the easiest to work with) 
Book: Farm Girl Vintage by Lori Holt 
Sewing machine 
Fabric marker 

Fabric Requirements:
TBD
 
Prerequisites:  
You must have basic working knowledge of how to use your sewing machine.  You should comfortably know how to wind a bobbin, thread the needle, change the needle, change the stitch length/style, etc.  


*Class Cancellation Policy*
Cancellations or changes to a class must be made no later than 72 hours prior to the class.  Cancellations made 72 hours or less prior to the class are not available for refunds or store credits.  Our class numbers are limited, and and such we need 72 hours or more to begin advertising the vacant seats in the class.  We appreciate your understanding on this matter.  
*CLASS LATE POLICY*
Classes start promptly on time.  Students are expected to arrive 10-15 minutes early to set up their sewing machine and make sure they have the required supplies listed in the class description (all supplies are the responsibility of the student unless specifically listed as provided by the shop).  Students may purchase anything they need for the class on the day of the class prior to the star of class for a 15% discount.  Students who are 15 minutes or more late may stay for class but may not be able to fully participate in the class.  The instructor will not be able to cover missed material.  Refunds will not be given for late or no-show students.
