Dive into the world of quilting with our comprehensive 3-Yard Quilt Top class. Designed for beginners and those looking to refine their skills, this class will guide you through the process of creating a quilt top using just 3 yards of fabric. You'll learn to read rulers for accurate fabric cutting, follow a cut list, and master essential piecing techniques like strip piecing, half-square triangles, snowballs, sashing, and borders. We’ll cover how to true up blocks, press seams correctly (an often-overlooked detail that can significantly impact how well your quilt comes together), and assemble your blocks and rows by following detailed diagrams. The book/ pattern will come with the class. The focus of the class is on completing the quilt top. This class is for adults only (18+).
