Come join us for some fun! We''ll be making a small quilt. It will finish at about a 40" square and we will cover all the steps from start to finish. The classes will cover all the steps in making a quilt, from cutting the fabric to attaching the binding after it is quilted. Students will need to bring a sewing machine and materials.
