String Quilt Class Project

What is a String Quilt?
“Strings” are all those leftover fabric strips and pieces that float around everyone’s sewing room. String quilts are simply quilts made from your longer fabric scraps.
To make a string quilt, you start with a foundation fabric, then use an easy sew-and-flip technique to attach strips and scraps to the foundation until the scraps completely cover the foundation.
That’s all there is to it! There’s no fussy measuring, no templates to follow, no precision cutting, no pattern to worry about. The license to be imprecise is my favorite part.
Come join us. As long as you are familiar with your own sewing machine and how to operate it, you are a good candidate for this class. As well as all experienced quilters/sewers, are all welcome.
- A large bag of scrap strips of quality quilting fabric. The strips need to be assorted sizes from 3” in length to width of fabric. They also need to be 1"-3" in width. The larger the variety of sizes and lengths of strips the better.
- 45° Ruler
- Neutral color thread
- Please bring basic sewing machine supplies such as scissors, rotary cutter, medium cutting mat, pins and or clips, seam ripper, and your sewing machine that is in good working order
