Beginning Quilting LogoBeginning Quilting – OK here it is!  The absolute best and most comprehensive beginner sessions we have ever offered!  Step-by-step, from the beginning, start to finish! 

Join Lynda as she guides you step-by-step. You will construct and finish your very first (or not) quilt!  Dynamic sessions will be paced for the beginner.  Fees include a workbook that includes everything covered in the sessions.  If it has been a while, and you need a refresher, this is the class for you as well!  This is a series of 8 monthly sessions, with follow up “Advanced Beginner” sessions next fall!  Bring your machine or use one of ours – Session One does not require a machine.

  • You will FINISH a 39” x 48” wall hanging OR baby quilt.
  • $100 includes classes, workbook, and YOUR CHOICE of fabrics to make your quilt top (5 1/2 yards ;)) and will be fully refunded if you choose to purchase a machine at any time during the classes (then you get your quilt for free)! 
  • Backing and binding will be an additional purchase.
  • Beginners’ supply package will be available for purchase and will be discounted for attendees.
  • Optional bonus session will include machine embroidery on our machines to make a custom quilt label for YOUR QUILT for that final finishing touch!
