Need space to baste your quilts? There is table space suitable to set out and baste large quilts and you can even bring a friend to help! Dates available most weeks - please call to arrange a time to suit you.
Sewing machines that have not been used for some time or are more than 10 years old should be serviced before attending the course to ensure they are in good working order. Your local sewing machine shop or The Cotton Patch can advise you but generally you should allow up to 2 weeks for its return.
A ¼” foot and a walking foot are also essential for undertaking machine patchwork and quilting. These feet will not have come as standard with your sewing machine unless specifically stated so you are advised to check before attending a class. Branded feet are generally available to buy individually from your local sewing machine shop.
