You will learn all the basic skills by the time
you have completed the 6 sessions.
Session #1 will be an introduction to quilting,
with focus on choosing fabrics, proper tools, etc.
Then you will begin to make a different sampler block
in the remaining 5 sessions. When all blocks are completed
you will have what is known as a sampler quilt.
Your sampler quilt can then be used as a wall-hanging
