Patchwork & Quilting
Weekly patchwork & quilting classes are a friendly and creative way to learn or develop your patchwork & quilting skils. Begginers usually start with a sampler quilt learning a new technique each week and making a small quilt and developing an excellent foundation of skills. From there - the world is your oyster! We cover a wide variety of techniques and projects from quilts to cushions, bags, wall-hangings, table runners... and many more! Any particular project you have in mind can be included and expert guidance given.
We offer 12-week patchwork & quilting terms throughout the year.
The new term starts week commencing 1st September
Classes:
Wednesday 10am - 12pm
Wednesday 7pm - 9pm
Thursday 10am - 12pm
Thursday 2pm - 4pm (Callander)
