Sampler Quilt Workshop

$185.00

All sewing levels are welcome in this sampler quilt workshop at Churchtown Dairy, a beautifully restored dairy farm in Hudson, NY.

In this full day workshop we will focus on building four beautiful quilt blocks: Missouri Star, Monkey Wrench, Old Maid’s Puzzle and Flying Geese. You might choose to experiment with all four or focus your day on one or two styles. Make your quilt modern with bright solids or perhaps mimic a vintage look with small prints. Either way you will gain lots of experience cutting, and piecing to set you up for success in future projects. If you want instruction with a block style not mentioned here, no problem, contact me and I am happy to help you along.

A delicious hot lunch with beverages is included with ticket purchase and will be available in the farm kitchen. So come and settle in for a day of creativity and great food on a Winter day.

Required materials (not provided):

  • Sewing machine in good working order

  • Neutral color all purpose thread

  • 45mm quilter’s rotary cutter; OLFA and Fiskers are good brands

  • 18” x 24” self healing cutting mat*

  • 4.5” X 18.5” or 6.5” x 24.5” grid ruler, Creative Grid brand is excellent

  • 4.5” square ruler optional*

  • Rotary mat optional* Omnigrid brand 18” is excellent

  • Fabric scissors or snips

  • Seam ripper

  • 2 yards total of quilting weight cotton fabrics. Pre cuts work well in this class, either a fat quarter bundle or 5” charm pack are great choices. A basket of scraps will be available to add to your blocks for you to experiment with.

*a common cutting station will be set up by the instructor with rulers and rotary cutters, but if you prefer to have your own cutting station bring these items along.
