Beginner Cushions

Beginner Cushions.
Lovely, small projects to dip your toe into Patchwork and Quilting with very little commitment... Almost everyone takes home a finished project.... and a new addiction!!








What do we make as a Beginners Project?
This small project is great for beginners... dabble in all aspects of patchwork and quilting...
Accurate cutting using a mat, ruler and rotary cutter.
Sewing an accurate quarter inch seam allowance with, hopefully, straight lines.
Good general piecing skills with top tips to help with seam matching.
Good pressing technique… a very important skill.
How to make and a small quilt sandwich.
How to quilt and, if there’s still time left we can turn your project into a lovely cushion with my fabulously easy zip inserting method. 
The workshops start at 10am and we should be finished by 3pm... 
What a lovely way to spend a day... then, if you find you are hooked... and that happens a lot... you can start thinking about what to make next.
