Belva is teaching a 12-session series that will teach you many fundamentals of quilting to include eight different piecing techniques, how to set your blocks together with sashing, adding a border, quilting by machine, binding the quilt, and even making a label. By the time the series is over, you will have a lap quilt or wall hanging. Each class is independent of itself if you just want to learn one technique, or you can stay with us for all classes. Each class is $20. There is limited seating so reserve your spot early.
In class #4 you will learn how to piece triangles while making the Double Pinwheel block. You will also begin “thinking like a quilter” by learning to sketch your design on graph paper to make your own pattern pieces.
