Hand Quilting 101

Hand quilting has never gone out of style. It's not only a functional way of finishing your quilts but decorative, too. Learn all the essentials of hand quilting in this class, including hand quilting stitches. You'll also learn about the different types of frames, batting, needles and threads used in hand quilting. This class does not teach you to piece anything, only to do the quilting stitches that hold the three layers of a quilt together. Kit included. Taught by Sheila Blair. Limited to 6 students.

We're often asked "What are the best needles for hand quilting?" While Sheila provides many tools and notions for students to try in this class, these needles are her personal favorites: Bohin Betweens, Assorted Sizes (00368BE), and John James Quilting, Size 3/9 (JJ12039).

• You should receive a class supply list about 2 weeks prior to the class by email unless you have stopped by the shop to get one in person. 
• You may cancel a class up to two weeks prior to class for a full refund.
• We will only cancel a class if we have to.
• If you miss part of a multi-session class we can try to get you in the next class with a processing fee (fee is determined by the length of the class) to cover the lost spot in that class.
• Unless noted as a "hand work class," classes require you to bring your own sewing machine. While we may be able to obtain a loaner machine, it is best to use a machine you're already familiar with; beginners will benefit from learning on the same machine they will use outside of class.
