Quilt As You Go

A "quilt as you go" quilt is a quilt that is quilted as it is constructed. Managing the backing, batting, and quilt top is made easier because the quilt top is sewn at the same time it is quilted onto the batting and backing. 

In this three week class, students will make, quilt, and bind their own throw-size (approx. 42x54) quilt. This is a perfect Christmas gift, or great for cozying up during the cold part of the year. A quilt as you go quilt is a great introduction to quilting, and perfect for learning binding techniques.

Week One - Quilt construction
Week Two - Finishing quilt construction and trimming
