Quilting has taken on a life of its own as a modern art form, but it's also a fun, easy, and practical way to sew up scraps of fabric and let your imagination run wild! Local quilt pattern designer Rachel Sterling will walk you through how to cut and piece a simple quilt block and assemble it into a finished, machine-quilted sampler complete with batting, backing, and binding. Once you learn these basic skills, you'll be ready to create quilts of all shapes and sizes!

Limited to 6 participants. Requires 3 participants to run. In the event of cancellation due to low enrollment, registered participants will receive notice and a refund 3 days prior to the scheduled start date of the series.
