Quilted Duffle Bag with Allison

Learn how to combine quilting and bag making by creating your own quilted duffle bag! In this class, you’ll learn the basics of quilted construction while creating a functional project that introduces you to patchwork, quilting, and bag making techniques.

Using the Knot & Thread Patchwork Duffle Mini pattern, you’ll learn how to piece your fabric, add structure and support, and confidently work through the steps of constructing a quilted bag. We’ll cover techniques that can be applied to future sewing projects, including working with quilted layers, creating a professional finish, and assembling a multi-dimensional project.
