Laramie County Community College

Learn the process of hand piecing (English paper technique) and hand quilting through creating a sample quilt block. Students will learn how to create a pattern, cut and stitch the quilt pieces together. Following the piecing of the quilt front, the student will learn the process of how to actually quilt the quilt through the selection of backing material, placement of the backing, batting and quilt front together with a basting stitch before placing the quilt in the quilting frame (hoop). Once in the frame, the student will learn how to complete the quilting process by sewing in a running stitch the front, batting and backing together. To finish off the quilt block, the student will learn how to bind the quilt block to finish their project.
