In this quilting workshop, this ‘make do and mend aspect’ will be explored as a practical and creative device, touching on contemporary and historical examples. By piecing together different shapes, you will complete a small, quilted piece that will make for a great starting point for a larger scale quilt or a textile art piece. 

This workshop is designed to teach you the basics of quilting, piecing together different shapes to complete a small, quilted piece. The techniques covered make for a great starting point for a larger scale quilt or a textile art piece.

We will explore ways of assembling fragments to create a pieced top layer, which is then sandwiched with padding and a backing cloth. Quilting through the layers using different stitching methods to complete the final piece ,You will have the opportunity to experiment with a variety of fabrics and threads to explore scale, colour and texture.

By the end of the session, you should be able to complete a small quilted piece using the materials and resources provided. You may wish to keep your piece as a standalone work or, it could be a starting point for a larger quilt or textile project.

You will be taught by demonstration, group and individual tuition and a short presentation. You will be taken through the techniques with a group demonstration and then individually as necessary. You will have access to visual aids of books, and images for inspiration to enrich your learning experience.

Access to basic materials and resources are available as part of this course. Bring a notebook and pen or pencil and a bag for your work. A selection of fabrics will be available for you or you may wish to bring your own scrap fabrics

This course is for all levels. If you have skills but little experience of designing and making a quilt you will be able to explore methods to inspire your making.

Beverley has an academic training in Fine Art and Textiles and for a while set up a design business in Knitted Garments. Whilst studying for an MA in Textiles, Beverley started using traditional Bead Weaving, Embroidery and Quilting techniques to create painted and stitched pieces. This led to creating accredited and personal interest short courses in Beaded Jewellery, Fashion and Textiles. Beverley continues to use constructive Textile techniques within her teaching practise. She is actively involved in her community and works closely with local charities to explore how Art and Craft increases Well Being. She is a member of Hastings Arts Forum where she curates Textile shows and exhibits.

All materials provided, and all skill levels are welcome.
