Quilting 101

A big welcome to the world of quilting to my latest graduates of Quilting 101!

Over a couple of Saturdays in March I taught the Quilting 101 (beginning quilting) class at Out of Hand, a local quilting store.  Learning a lot of quilting lingo 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 to 100% finished.  Most were at the point of hand-sewing the binding on to the back of their quilts.

Here they are with their beautiful quilts: 

Lana and Cheryl

Shelley

Doris and Linda

Doris has taken beginner quilting before and decided to take the class again to complete another little quilt. An excellent idea, as she had two days of dedicated time without interruptions to complete her second quilt.

Thank you all for taking Quilting 101, I hope we have some new (or renewed) quilters thinking about their next project.
