A big welcome to the world of quilting to my latest
graduates of Quilt Primer!
Over a couple of Saturdays in April I taught the Quilt
Primer (beginning quilting) class at Out of Hand, a local needlework and
quilting store. We covered everything
from fabric selection right up to binding and after two intensive days of learning and sewing these
ladies had a crib size quilt about 95% finished. Most were at the point of hand-sewing the
binding on to the back of their quilts.

Don’t you just love the fabric selection and beautiful
colours?
Corissa is a fashion design teacher looking to add new
skills to her repertoire, Kathy was encouraged by a friend in California to
take quilting lessons, Courney’s mom is a longarm quilter, Darlene has taken
Quilt Primer before and came to accompany her cousin Pat, who has
done some quilting and wanted to learn the basics and hopefully a few tips and
tricks.
Welcome to the world of quilting ladies, I look forward to
seeing you in a future class.
