Classes at Cary Quilting Company
We have all kinds of classes for all levels of quilters. Here are just three of our featured upcoming classes:
Join Roberta Morgan for some fun no-machine needle felting. Learn the craft of needle felting by making a bold and colorful cuff bracelet, a neckpiece and a pin case.
Learn how to make the stunning Mega Star quilt by Zen Chic. Lynn will guide you through the steps to creating this modern Lone Star quilt that uses a jelly roll and a contrasting fabric.
Kim would love to teach you how to use two Studio 180 rulers in her Summer Camp. She will also share tips on how to use these blocks in patterns that aren’t written using them.
