Introduction to Machine Piecing (At The Quilt Works)

CLASS DESCRIPTION
This basic class introduces you to machine piecing, quilting and finishing techniques, and gives you the experience you need to take any other Quilt Works class.  You make a different block in each of the first 4 classes, and then quilt and bind a placemat in the 5th class.  The placemats are 18” × 12”.  If you choose to create a table runner with the 4 blocks, it is 63” × 18”.  A wall hanging with the 4 blocks finishes at 33” × 33”, and can be used as a nice table topper.  
Note 1:  The "Let's Get Started" class, or equivalent experience, is a prerequisite for this class.  
Note 2:  This class, or equivalent experience, is a prerequisite for all machine classes.
