Get started on your quilting journey with our Beginner Quilting Series, where all the essential supplies are included! Each student will receive a fat quarter bundle of their choice, a spool of thread, and a quilting needle to use throughout the four-part class. This hands-on series is designed to guide you step by step through the quilting process—from tools and cutting to piecing, quilting, and binding. By the end, you’ll have a completed 12-inch churn dash block and the confidence to start your next project!

You can sign up for all 4 session or just the techniques you need to work on.
