3rd Wednesday Class – My Sewing Supplies (Sylvania)

28 March, 2025 by admin

Monthly Quilt Class with Lorena – Third Wednesday of the Month
📍 My Sewing Supplies, Sylvania – Sutherland Shire

Join Lorena for a monthly quilting class at My Sewing Supplies in Sylvania, where you can work on a variety of quilt patterns at your own pace.

Choose from Lorena’s original designs, including Opal Essence, Winding Ways, QST Courthouse Steps, and Sakura Breeze, or take on the challenge of Lessa Siegele’s Ring Cycles quilt. Explore different fabric combinations: low-volume with brights, bold large-scale prints, or a striking two-colour design to make it uniquely yours.

If you’re new to patchwork, Lorena will guide you through the fundamentals by making a sampler quilt. Select different blocks or repeat a favourite to create a quilt that reflects your style.

Materials & Templates:

  • Fabric, templates, and commercial patterns (if needed) are additional to the class fee. A wide range of options is available in-store, and the staff are happy to assist you.
  • For Ring Cycles, Lorena recommends Marti Michell’s Set H
  • Lorena also has her own templates to support her quilt designs.

📍 Location: My Sewing Supplies, 208 Princes Highway, Sylvania NSW 2224.
📅 When: Third Wednesday of each month.

Come along for expert guidance, inspiration, and a welcoming community of quilters!
