Intro to Quilting: Perfectly Imperfect
2 four-hour sessions
Learn the basics of making a patchwork and assembling a quilt in this two part workshop with Ian Capstick (https://www.instagram.com/quiltqueerly/)
Quilting has a reputation for fussiness: perfect points, matched seams, corners that meet exactly. Ian teaches it the other way round. In improvisational quilting you work without a strict pattern and your seams and points might not be perfect and that’s what makes it uniquely yours.
Class 1 – Patchwork
Class 2 – Quilting
Participants may not finish completely in the workshop. We’ll provide examples and instructions on how to turn your blocks into: a tote bag or back patch for a jean jacket, a pillow or even the start of a much larger quilt!
