Quilt Coat (2 Days) : AQC

April 11 @ 10:00 am - April 12 @ 5:00 pm

Do you have a quilt that no longer sparks joy? Or want to be warm and cosy in the latest cottagecore trend? Learn how to confidently transform a quilt or quilted panels into a quilt coat.

You can use a completed quilt, pre-quilted fabric or specifically make quilted panels according to the coat pattern requirements.

Learn how to choose the right pattern, how quilting and wadding can affect drape, how to cut pattern pieces including collar, hood and pocket options if applicable. You’ll also learn how to sew together a quilt coat, the technique of adding bias-binding to seams and see demonstrations of buttonhole and press stud closures.

You will leave with a completed quilt coat with possibly some binding to stitch at home.

Skill level: Basic skills to advanced.
Students must be confident in using sewing patterns and machines.
The quilt must be quilted prior to the class.
