Weekly quiltmaking classes offer patients and staff members an opportunity to meet others interested in quilts and to learn some new skills. Taught by Lauren Kingsland, an experienced quilting instructor, these classes offer an introduction to hand piecing, applique and quilting techniques suitable for a portable project. Instruction is also available in individual interests. The lessons are informal and are directed by the participants' level of experience and ongoing projects. Patients and staff members with previous quiltmaking experience are encouraged to attend.
Beginners are welcome.
It is not necessary to attend every session. Some materials are available through the program. Bring sharp scissors and a thimble, if you have them. This activity resumes in the fall.
