Personalized Classes The teachers at Sunday Best Quiltworks work one-on-one with each student to teach a host of specialized skills needed to create brilliant, desirable quilts and fabric projects. Our individual lessons and small classes create the perfect environment for learning and fun.
Learn hand quilting, machine piecing, appliqué, paper-piecing and much more! We'll share the best tips for lining up points, pressing seams, saving scraps and applying your new skills to future projects.
Sign up for group classes and we'll take you through a quilt project from start to finish - take a stack of pretty fabrics and turn them into a gorgeous quilt!
Class Policy: Effective immediately, students must pre-pay for all classes when they sign up for them. If for any reason you cannot attend, we will gladly refund half the class fee or apply the full amount to a future class. Pre-cut kits will be nonrefundable. 2010 Class Schedule
