The 20’ design wall is perfect for placing the pieces of your patchwork in just the right design. Reserving the space is not necessary, but always appreciated.

**Class is excellent for beginners.
While we do our best to estimate the amount of time it will take to complete a class, more time might be necessary. Our policy is that anyone taking a class may stay as long as they wish or return another day at no charge. We want to make sure everyone has sufficient time to complete a project and we will help in any way we can.
We will be happy to tailor any class to your needs. Individualized instruction is also available upon request. Call or email us to request a brochure on our longarm quilting services and custom made quilt racks or visit our website.
