2-Part Beginner Class

Class Dates: Friday, January 8th & 15th, 2027
Time: 9:00 AM 4:00 PM (with a lunch break)
Price: $39.95 + supplies

This is a great beginner quilting project! We’ll be making the lap size version of the Walk About Quilt by Ann Lauer in this 2-part class and yes, you’ll have some fun homework between the two sessions!

In this beginner-friendly class you’ll learn to make Half Square Triangles (HSTs), square up blocks, nest your piecing for crisp intersections, and measure and apply borders and more!

Lunch: We’ll break for lunch each day. You’re welcome to bring your own lunch or visit one of the local eating places during your break.

Choosing Your Fabrics: This quilt top uses 4 different fabrics.

• Fabric #1 is your “inspiration” fabric choose a larger scale print with a few different colors in it. This becomes the large squares in the quilt.
• Fabric #2 is your “background” fabric and needs to contrast with Fabric #3.
• Fabric #3 becomes your chevrons and your first & third borders and binding. Tone-on-tones work great for Fabrics #2 and #3!
• Fabric #4 is your second border. It can be multi-color and works best when it plays well with Fabric #1 but at a slightly smaller scale.
