Learning to Quilt
New to quilt making? Or maybe you just need a refresher. Start from the beginning with Nancy's "Learning to Quilt" series. Get all the basics plus lots of extras. You will learn proper accurate rotary cutting, the importance of the scant 1/4" seam, strip piecing, triangles, flying geese, bias cable work, paper piecing, invisible machine and hand applique..........just to name of few of the techniques. Sign up early so that you can have a one on one session with the teacher to help you pick out your fabrics before the class starts.
This is an 8 session class
You will also be able to review all the classes on my video show: www.onpoint-tv.com

Fabric selection :
