Looperette is a choose-your-own-path style quilt made with modular blocks that can be rearranged in any direction to create a custom design. You can either follow the cutting requirements and instructions to create the six preset sizes/layouts listed in the yardage chart, or you can dream up your own version. Pattern comes with mini coloring blocks to cut out and rearrange to create a custom design and a “Design Your Own” section in the instructions to help you figure out how much yardage your creation will require.

Participants will learn all steps for creating a quilt, from measuring and cutting fabric, sewing perfect squares, getting your points to match, and finishing your quilt. Leave this class with a finished quilt in a size of your choosing. As a slightly more advanced pattern, some basic experience or knowledge of quilting will be helpful, though not required. 

Please Note: Larger the quilt sizes require homework, and you are welcome to use our Open Sew option to complete homework at the shop.

*Skill Level:  Advanced Beginner - You have a good handle on the basics and are ready to dip your toe into more challenging waters. You’re still fairly new to sewing from patterns and could use help with how to manipulate the pattern to get a better fit. You want to add some new skills to your repertoire (invisible zippers, setting-in sleeves, etc.) and want to have an option to use a serger for finishing techniques. Classes generally require homework.
