Tips & Techniques

 Teaching Kids to Quilt

Prepare the Classroom

  • Find out ahead of time: What desks or tables will be available? Where are the electrical outlets? Will you need extension cords?
  • Set up three work stations-one for the pinning, one for sewing and one for ironing. Plan for one adult helper at each station or one to accompany a student from station to station until the block is complete.
