Quilting
Thursdays from 1:00-3:00pm
Location: Craft Room
If you are a quilter or have always wanted to learn quilt making, this class is for you!
This class will combine the Beginner Quilting class with the Advanced Quilting class. Some weeks will be used for group projects working on quilts that will be donated to local non-profit organizations and other weeks being “open-sew” classes where you will work on your own quilting project.
Bonnie Doran and Sharon Stackpole will co-lead this class although there will be other knowledgeable advanced quilters present each week willing to provide guidance and to share the enjoyment of creating a quilt with the beginners. “Show and Tell” will be a highlight of this quilting class.
No quilting experience necessary but participants must have prior sewing experience and be familiar with using a sewing machine in order to join the class. This class has limited openings.
**You must sign up with Hilary in order to attend this class.** Call the senior center at 860-889-5961.
