What to Expect
This standalone skill class meets on Sunday, April 5, from 1–4pm. This class focuses on guided practice using curved piecing templates provided by the instructor. You’ll learn how to prepare fabric, align curved edges, and stitch them together cleanly, with demonstrations and plenty of time for hands-on sewing. The instructor will share tips and tricks for easing curves, managing fabric stretch, and improving accuracy, while offering individual support throughout the session.
For those who want extra time to continue working on their project, ask questions, or quilt alongside others, we will also offer a separate Quilt-Along session later in the month. This optional follow-up meets on Sunday, April 19, 1–4pm, and is ticketed separately at $10 ($8 for members).
