ALL UNFINISHED QUILTS WELCOME!!
Remember that quilt you started years ago and never finished? We all have that pile of blocks we haven’t pieced or quilt top that hasn’t been fully completed. It’s been sitting in the same place for months, just waiting for a wave of inspiration. The time is now!
In this lab, you’ll learn techniques to turn that quilt top into a proper cozy quilt! This lab will focus on teaching different binding techniques so that you’ll find the method that is just right for you. You’ll learn how to select the right batting, how to stay organized, and even methods for hand or machine quilting! You’ll come away from the lab with the confidence to finish quilts on your own.

*Skill Levels: 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, sewing with a serger, etc.). Classes generally require homework.
Modern Domestic Labs: You're interested in sewing in a group setting and prefer to have an instructor's guidance on specific techniques and/or skills that are proposed in the Lab's topic. You have the ability to sew at your own pace, the expert help to keep you on track and sewing along, and a variety of options (sometimes endless!) when it comes to choosing the project you want to sew.
