In-person patchwork quilting class led by Geraldine Edgington, covering cutting, blocks, machine quilting and binding for beginners and experienced quilters.
Geraldine Edgington is running a patchwork quilting class at Fashion n' Fabrics on Friday 27 November, and it's a proper start-to-finish session. Rather than just one part of the process, it covers the whole run: cutting the fabric, piecing together the quilt blocks, sandwiching the layers, machine quilting and binding. If you've never made a quilt before, that's the full sequence in a single go.
It's an in-person class, and the groups are kept small — up to six people. That makes it work for two different kinds of quilter: beginners can pick up the basics from scratch, while more experienced makers can bring along a pattern or an unfinished project and get some one-on-one help with it. You're not just watching a demo; you're actually working through the craft with Geraldine there to guide you.
Fashion n' Fabrics is on Beech Road, a St Albans fabric and craft shop that runs a regular programme of sewing, knitting, crochet, patchwork and textile classes. It's a working shop, so you're learning in a place that lives and breathes this kind of thing, and the session is part of a wider calendar of making workshops they host throughout the year.
