Hand Stitching Quilts: Skill Building for Beginners at Slowfiber

Slowfiber presents a workshop with Lyn Sandberg entitled Hnad Stitching Your Quilts, Like Days Gone By, a skill-building class for beginners on Friday, March 29, 12pm-4pm. Fee is $95. Please register here.

You know the difference in the feel of a hand-quilted and a machine-quilted quilt. Let's learn to do it like our ancestors! Lyn will cover: how to start and finish your thread while quilting; which needles and thread to use; how to use a hoop or frame or just work in your lap; thimble choices; marking with stencils; stitching methods; basting; and how to hide your knots. If you are wondering about what you have already on hand, bring it to Lyn for a consult.
