Welcome to our workshop exploring hand quilting with Elise Cripe. In this workshop Elise shares her passion for quilting and teaches us the process and technique of crafting a custom linen quilt from scratch. Utilizing hand quilting – and foregoing a traditional sewing machine – Elise shares how to layer, stitch and bind a cozy lap quilt.

Hand quilting offers an opportunity to explore stitched shapes and patterns on the surface of the quilt itself. With floss + needle in hand, we invite you to create a design that speaks to you. Using a single piece of linen as the top and bottom of this quilt, each maker starts with a blank canvas and a fresh palette of possibilities. Hand stitching is both decorative and functional; the stitches also serve the purpose of capturing three separate layers: linen, batting, linen to provide the structure of the blanket. Quilting refers simply to the process of binding these layers together.

This workshop includes:

a detailed, digital workshop on how to hand quilt with Elise Cripe
a recorded Maker Chat Q&A with our artist and podcast

The tools & materials included in this kit:

two roughly 40×50” lengths of linen fabric (a linen-cotton blend for coziness) in flax & ecru, enough fabric for the top and bottom of a lap-sized blanket (hand quilting offers an opportunity to get quite intricate and detailed with stitching – this is the perfect size to get started).
quilt batting
perle embroidery floss in four neutral colors chosen by Elise: three beautiful blues and ivory
three quilting needles in varying sizes
a washout pattern pen
template cardstock to build a pattern

Happy making.
