Kids Quilt!

June 23-27, 9am-noon each day

Age requirements: 10-14

Teaching artist: Kaitlin Esche-Lyon (@quarterlifeleap)

Camp fee: $220.00

Learn how to quilt from start to finish! In this five-day camp, participants will learn a simple, beginner-friendly block and finish a beautiful lap-sized quilt.

Kids will learn how to sew fabric on a sewing machine to create quilt blocks; and sew the blocks together into a quilt top. They will learn how to sandwich the quilt top with batting and backing; tie the quilt sandwich; and finish the quilt with binding.

All fabric will be provided by Benartex Fabrics and Quarter Life Leap. Sewing machines, all needed tools, and additional supplies will also be provided. If a student wishes to bring a sewing machine from home, they are welcome to do so.
