Cuddle Sample Size Quilt Techniques

This class will have students make three very small samples– a stitch and reverse, a stitch and flip method with binding, and a self-binding quilt. This exposes students to three different techniques that work well with Cuddle® fabric. Students will cut some fabrics, pin, baste, sew, and even do some binding. Smaller size helps makes sewing more manageable when trying new fabrics.
