Intro to Quilting

Ages 13- Adult. Instructor: Carole Gary Staples

Learn the quilting process and complete your own small quilt project! In this class, you’ll learn how to choose fabrics, follow a quilting pattern, cut fabric, piece a top, make a quilt sandwich, quilt your sandwich on a traditional sewing machine (or by hand), and bind!
