Hi friend, I'm Rachel the instructor for this class! I've been teaching quilting since 2018. In fact, my very first class was teaching how to make t-shirt quilts! I love to see my students' success when creating a quilt.
I know the struggle of trying to start a new hobby. Learning all the new tools, techniques, and tricks to get your project to turnout perfect. You don’t want to waste time or money on something that’s not going to give you joy or satisfaction.
This class will walk you through step by step to help you start and finish a quilt you’ll be proud to show off. I’ll be there to help you along the way and if you ever get stuck I’m just a message away!

Memory quilts are so precious to me.
My very first memory quilt was a bridesmaids dress that a client asked me to turn into a quilt as a wedding gift to her friend who was the bride. I was so scared to cut into this gorgeous dress! At the time I didn’t even know how to free motion quilt but I knew how to piece so I did it scared. This quilt turned into one of my favorite quilts I’ve made so far! It turned out so beautifully and gave me the confidence to keep going with more memory quilt designs.
I’ve now made quilts out of
- t-shirts,
- button downs,
- military uniforms,
- formal wear,
- baby clothes,
- sports jerseys,
- 4-H ribbons,
- even gymnastics leotards.
I can’t wait to share my tips, tricks, and shortcuts with you so you, too, can have the confidence to cut into those treasured t-shirts you’ve been storing and create your own quilt story with them.
