    CLASS SKILL LEVELS -- WHERE DO YOU FIT IN?

    • Beginner - You're comfortable around your sewing machine, can sew a consistent 1/4" seam and know how to use rotary cutting tools.
    • Intermediate and Beyond - You have made a quilt from start to finish but want to learn new techniques or perfect the techniques you have only learned from books.
