T-Shirt Class (Two Day)
In this beginner-friendly class, you’ll learn the basics of how to transform your favorite t-shirts into a cozy, memory-filled quilt by stabilizing, cutting, and assembling them with ease. Get ready to create a one-of-a-kind keepsake while building your quilting skills! (Students should be comfortable running a sewing machine, changing the bobbin and have basic sewing skills.) You will be working on the quilt top only. The quilt will need to be quilted and bound to be complete (separate classes).
