Patchwork quilts are good for the soul - they are colourful and quirky, unique to each maker. In this sewing class, you will learn the techniques for how to hand piece a quilt and get started on a quilt of your own.
Your teacher for this workshop, Lu, has been making quilts by hand for over 15 years and really enjoys sharing her knowledge about patchwork. The class will start by taking a look at quilts Lu has made by hand, and discussing different techniques and terminology.
From there, Lu will provide a demonstration on how to draw, cut, and hand-piece two kinds of patchwork blocks in quilting. Participants will then work with their supplied kit to hand-piece a block or two, leaving the day with confidence to carry on with this beautiful craft. All levels of experience are welcome in this class.
Creating quilts by hand is slow and meditative. Small pockets of time spent stitching can add up to one amazing work of art that is useful and has a purpose. There is nothing quite like tucking a loved one in under a quilt you made lovingly by hand. After this workshop, you will be well on your way to having a unique, handmade quilt of your own!
