Class, Upbeat Multi Sized Quilt

A 2-Part Class

Saturday Sept. 27 and Oct. 25, 10am - 4pm

Get in the groove with our Upbeat Quilt class, featuring a fun and rhythmic design by It’s Sew Emma! This cheerful pattern combines lively chain blocks with dancing star motifs to create a quilt that feels like music in motion. It’s perfect for confident beginners and a great way to use up those 2.5" Jelly Roll strips or favourite fabric cuts. You'll learn how to nest seams, piece with precision, and create a balanced layout that brings the quilt’s vibrant movement to life. With four size options—crib, lap, twin, and queen—you can choose the project that fits your needs. Come join Kelley Richardson and stitch something that will have you tapping your toes with joy!
