Alternatively\, you may decide to follow a colour scheme and use these pieces to create a large quilt repeating all or some of the designs. \nDuring the session you will learn to create one block using the specified technique coving all the skills required. This will enable you to make more blocks in your own time which you can piece together to create a large quilt should you wish. \nWritten instructions\, requirements and measurements will be provided. \nThis session is the:\nQuilt-as-you-go.\nQuilt-As-You-Go is similar to regular quilting except that you are quilting individual pieces all at the same time. That is\, you are sewing through all three layers (fabric\, wadding and backing) of your quilt in one go. \nI have sewing machines available for use during the session\, but if you do have your own sewing machine\, I would recommend you bring it along so that you can become more and more confident in using your machines features. \nWe will break about half way through the session for refreshments\, as sewing is thirsty work for mind and body therefore it’s only natural that there will be plenty of tea\, coffee and cake to keep us going! \nClass Length: One\, 3 hour session \nMax in a class: 5 \nPrice: £45 \nEmail me to check availability and to book your place \nI also carry a stock of fabrics and haberdashery should you wish to purchase on the day (card payment facility available). or you can also browse and buy fabrics at our online fabric shop. \nVisit Watsons Fabrics
