Turn old clothes or scrap material into something modern and new. Make anything from bags to jackets by becoming a quilter.
In this course, you’ll get to know how fun and easy it is to get quilting. Even if you’ve never picked up a sewing needle before, you’ll soon get the hang of it. Build up your skills and quilting techniques by following the quilting patterns in the course to create clothes, a yoga mat carrier and pretty pillows.
Your head will be spinning with ideas to make your own clothes and home furnishings from scratch. Personalize existing items to make them unique. Freshen and modernize something old, forgotten or drab.
