A Day at the Beach

Sew your  way to summer vibes without leaving your sewing room. In A Day at the Beach, you will wiggle your toes in the "sand," watch a tiny sailboat drift across your block and stitch Paula's quick-and-easy original paper foundation piecing pattern step by step. This relaxed, confidence-building class is perfect for beginners and a refresher for seasoned quilters. By the last seam you will have a sunny seaside scene and a headfull of ocean breezes-quite possibly the nudge you need to book next summer's gettaway.  No guesswork, just clear demos, friendly tips and beach-day joy stitched into every piece.
