That's an ambitious agenda and could be very overwhelming for a new quilter.

A Quilting 101 class needs to be simplified for a beginner's success.

Start with the concept of how to master the 1/4 inch seam which is one of the most important foundations to quilts.

Show them how to square up blocks. It's a concept that can be difficult to understand for many quilters. Explain bias and stretching of the fabrics, how to press blocks and not iron them.

Provide samples of different quilt blocks and how to construct them. Play a game recognizing them.

Keep the class simple to bring them back for more.
