We’re so excited to offer our Memory Quilt Workshop, led by Janine from Fat Quarter Quilting.
Whether it's baby clothes or garments from a loved one, memory quilts are a beautiful way to cherish special moments. Working with a range of different fabrics which have been worn and will be from a wide variety of fabric types is a different challenge which Janine will help you navigate, making a design from the fabrics you have and supporting you through the construction of your unique quilt.
What you will learn/achieve
Preparing your fabrics, stabilising them if necessary.
Reviewing the useable areas of fabric and creating a design which works for your fabrics
Using fussy cutting and appliqué to include those very special details in your quilt
You will receive support in piecing your quilt and finally be guided through the quilting and binding processes.
What's included
Tuition: Full instruction and support in a small class. The course content will be adapted to help you with your unique fabrics and quilt design.

Tea and cake during each session.
What to bring
Bring all of your cherished clothing items which you want to include in the quilt.
