Special Program Advisory: This program will meet virtually (originally advertised as an in-person program).

NOTE: Registration will close for this program at 3 p.m. ET on Friday, April 29, 2022.

Hand stitching is a great way to reduce stress, and the portability of handwork projects makes them ideal take-alongs to fit into your day. Learn the basics of hand-stitched quilt-making by creating an 18-by-24 inch piece as a doll quilt or a wall hanging.

Learn the same piecing, applique, quilting, and finishing techniques used in larger quilts as you work on your small-scale project during this multi-session class. No sewing machine is needed; all work can be done by hand.

This class will be recorded. Please see our FAQ for recording terms and conditions.
