Whether you want to make a large scale bed quilt or a small sized wall hanging, this class will take you through everything you need to know for beginner quilting.

Ashley Hough will begin by going over many of the different fabric options out there, how to buy them and how selecting different pre-cut sizes can save time when making a project. You will then learn how to properly cut your fabric using a rotary cutting system.

Ashley will teach you how to properly piece and press your fabric and even show you several different beginner blocks you can start practicing with right away. The blocks Ashley will show in detail include:

9 Patch
Friendship Star
Rail Fence
Pinwheel

Once a quilt top has been made you will learn about the different types of batting and how to layer your quilt with a backing fabric. Ashley will show you several simple ways to begin practicing quilting and then show you how to bind your finished project.

Also included with this class are downloadable PDF documents with step-by-step instructions on creating the 4 blocks Ashley teaches as well as details on Pre-Cut Fabric sizes.

Ashley Hough

Ashley has sewn for years. Her mother taught her at a very young age. When first starting out, she stuck to mastering commercial patterns before venturing into creating her own. Her patterns have been featured in Sew News, Sew It All, and she has even been on Sew It All TV. Quilting is somewhat new to Ashley, but she dove in head first – coming up with an original design for her first quilt that included curved seams and hand appliqué! She was even lucky enough to have it featured in one of Quilty’s “This is My Quilt” episodes. Ashley loves all things crafty, from sewing to knitting, crochet to quilting, and everything in between. When she isn’t working on a new project or learning a different technique she loves teaching her passion to others.
