Class, The Boardwalk Quilting Jacket

Boardwalk Quilted Jacket Class

A 2 1/2 day class 

Nov. 19, 26 from 10:00AM - 5:00PM and 

Dec. 3 from 10:00AM - 1:00PM

Get ready to create a stunning, one-of-a-kind quilted jacket that's as unique as you are! Join our talented teacher, Sandra Thomas, as she guides you through the process of making the Boardwalk Quilted Jacket. This class is a fantastic opportunity to combine the striking, graphic design of Brenda Miller's "Boardwalk Runner" pattern with a functional and stylish garment.

In this class, you'll learn how to master the "Boardwalk" quilting technique to create a beautiful fabric. Then, Sandra will teach you how to expertly transform that quilted piece into a jacket, using the StyleArc Adelaide Woven Jacket pattern. You'll have the option of adding a zippered front or elegant toggle buttons, allowing you to truly personalize your creation.

Whether you're looking to create a statement piece or simply expand your skills in wearable quilting, this class is a must. You'll leave with a beautiful, custom-made jacket that will be the envy of all your friends!
