Join us for a fun, easygoing class where you'll get to choose from a variety of simple, eye-catching quilt block designs. This creative experience is perfect for beginners and seasoned crafters alike—and often leads to painting a second, third, or even more barn quilts!

Each student will select a quilt block pattern from a provided list. If you’d like your pattern pre-drawn before class, I’m happy to do that at no extra cost. During the class, we’ll walk through the process of transferring your design onto a prepped 2ft x 2ft wooden board, taping the lines, and painting your very own barn quilt. Along the way, you'll pick up new skills, enjoy a relaxed, social atmosphere, and leave with a detailed take-home worksheet for future projects.

All supplies are included. Just bring your enthusiasm and get ready to create something beautiful—and make some new friends, too!
