Recent reviews of Beginner's Quilting Workshop
- 5/5 from J Woods, attended Mar 2025: Enjoyable class. Very good explation on how to do things and nice working environment. Looking forward to finishing my wonkey donkey quilt. If wasn't so far away would attend weekly.
- 5/5 from Michelle Horton, attended Jul 2024: The teacher was lovely very knowledgeable and friendly. I really enjoyed the day and learned so much can't wait to do another one
- 5/5 from Sophy Sidnell, attended Jun 2024: I thoroughly enjoyed this workshop. The studio was a great workshop space. Jenny was lovely - very helpful and reassuring and so knowledgeable. She also made a great lemon drizzle cake. You do need to bring your own materials with you and Jenny has a partnership with a local supplier who has a range of gorgeous sets and can supply exactly what you need. We learnt how to piece and cut jelly roll strips accurately, how to make a binding out of strips and how to assemble individual blocks, and correct for errors. We were given advice on how to layout the finished pieces. Jenny then demonstrated how to layer quilt pieces, different quilting options and how to add a binding. I left inspired to get on and finish my wonky donkey and to research more quilting techniques for my next project.
