Get a taste of quilting in this special holiday workshop!
In this workshop, we'll be working from the Ruby Star Society Candlelight Stocking by Alexia Marcelle Abegg. We'll cover:
- How to assemble a "quilt sandwich" and baste or prep it for quilting
- How to quilt on a standard home sewing machine using a walking foot
- How to assemble a lined stocking with a cuff
Note: This class does not cover patchwork piecing.
SKILL REQUIREMENTS: This is an easy/intermediate class -- you do not need advanced sewing skills, but you must have basic machine sewing knowledge. Our Sewing 101 or equivalent is a prerequisite to this class. Unfortunately, we cannot accept students for this class who have never sewn on a machine.
