Rag Quilt Class

Join us for a beginner-friendly sewing class where you'll create a soft, cozy, rag quilt with beautiful texture and charm. Using 10in fabric squares, you'll learn how to layer, sew, and assemble a quilt that turns into a soft frayed finish after washing.

This class is designed to be simple and easy to follow - perfect for first time quilters or anyone looking for a relaxing, creative project. Choose between cotton or flannel layers or an all flannel option for extra coziness.

By the end of class, you will have your quilt complete and ready for the final wash that brings out the rag quilt texture! Please read the class information below!
