Quilt Basting Day

Who even has space in their house to baste a whole quilt?! And isn’t it just the worst task? Come bring your quilts to baste on the big tables at the studio, save your back and knees, and have company while you get it done! Let’s baste together!

If you would like to bring a quilt to work on, the group will help get it done! BUT! The deal is that you must also commit to helping the others as well. Everyone will lend a hand and get those pins in place, and we’ll get all the quilts done in one day – together!

Please make sure that your quilt top is fully complete, your back is assembled, your batting is prepped, and that you have enough pins to complete your project!

Event starts at 11am and we will be finished when all quilts are basted.  This usually take about half of the actual scheduled time but does depend on the size of the quilts brought in.  We work on quilts based on order of arrival and work till they are completed.  If you arrive late you may find the event has already ended, so please be sure to arrive on time.  Thanks!

*This event is free but has a suggested donation of $20 which will be donated to the Women’s Shelter of Pittsburgh.  Any donation is accepted, and all money will go to the shelter :)  Please bring cash the day of the event.

**Sign-up is required for people who bring a quilt to baste ONLY. Volunteers may simply turn up on the day and lend a hand! Please do NOT sign up if you are not planning to bring a quilt!**  If you are bringing a quilt please email the studio with the size you plan to bring.
