Description: Hand Quilting is both fun and relaxing. Join Pat Yamin in this two part- workshop to learn two popular techniques for quilting your completed quilt. The time honored technique of hand quilting has not been lost, and many shows have a special category for Hand Quilting and offer ribbons and big prize money.
You will learn all of the steps to prepare your quilt and be ready to hand- stitch. Pat will teach you how to prepare the quilt top, with the backing, batting and basting, so your top will lay perfectly flat. The preparation is as important as the technique in your quilting stitches.
In the afternoon, we will be working with another technique called Big Stitch. In this class we will be pin basting, before we begin. The Big Stitch is also quilting but with larger stitches, different thread and different needles. This is a once in a lifetime workshop that you will learn both techniques all in one day and then you can decide on your own preferred technique! Pat will be providing kits for both of the classes!
