Beginning Quilting- Table Runner (2 Sessions)
Do you want to learn the basics of quilting or improve your skills? If so, this is the class for you. In this class, you will be introduced to the basics of quilting by sewing a quilted table runner. We will cover measuring, cutting, and piecing so that your table runner will come together beautifully. Once your top is complete, we will learn to assemble and pin together your quilt sandwich and quilt the layers together using your home machine. Finally, students will learn to bind the quilt. The table runner is approximately 18 by 50 inches.
Supplies and Material:
Students will need their own machine (or to rent one for the day at the store) and coordinating thread. Students will be able to buy fabric kits with the pattern - or they may select their own fabric before the first class.
We will discuss basic quilting, tools during the first class (e.g. scissors, rulers, rotary cutter, cutting mats) but you do not need to have them in advance.

| Instructor: | Christina Wright |
| Instructor Bio: | Christina began sewing after leaving her career as a biologist and she quickly fell in love. Her inspirations often come from nature --- though she does have a particular love of fabrics with gold and silver metallics. One of Christina's favorite parts of making a quilt is playing around with different fabric to find her favorite combination for each pattern. She looks forward to sharing her passion and love of quilting and sewing with her students. |
