Date - Wednesday 26th March 10 - 12.30 2025
Tutor - Kelly Dillon
Price - £28
Whole Cloth Quilting comprises of a single piece of fabric, which is in turn quilted, making the quilting itself the main focus.
Come and spend a few hours perfecting your hand quilting technique. Choose from a variety of patterns and templates you will then learn how to ‘mark out’ your design ready for stitching. Kelly will then show you how to use small, regular hand stitches to quilt the design.
During this session you will quilt a small design which then in turn could be made into a cushion or bag, for example. However, once the technique is learned this skill could be used in a huge range of projects - including making a whole cloth quilt, or to add quilting patterns and designs to your own work.
The ‘Come and Try …’ sessions have been designed as a relaxed, informal morning where a new quilting or patchwork technique will be tried. Over the months these sessions will help to increase skills, knowledge and passion for sewing. These sessions are proving very popular - so book early! A lovely morning guarenteed with like minded people and a new skill or two!
Materials will be provided for this session - including wadding and backing.
All classes are held in our stable studio in the beautiful village of Isfield. Please note that the studio is 80 metres approximately from the driveway along a gravel path - so those will mobility difficulties please take note. Due to the studio’s idyllic position the nearest toilet is back up the path in the main house.
If, for any unforseen reasons the class has to be cancelled firstly a new date will be offered and you may either transfer to the new date or a refund will be issued. Should you need to change your booking please get in touch with Kelly as soon as possible to discuss alternative plans.
