This course is designed to teach people who are starting their journey in quilting. You will learn all the basic techniques which are needed to successfully make a quilt. In a relaxed atmosphere, we will be making one of the traditional star block, then join these blocks together into a 60” x 60” lap size quilt. This course will walk the students through all the steps; starting from the first straight cut to the finishing binding. A lot of tips included. Some homework might be required.
