9 a.m. - 12 p.m. ( 3 hours per day) 12 hour total workshop 
 
The Christmas Quilt is both easy and beautiful! Depending on the size wanted, students will construct alternating pieced and plain blocks to the size needed for their quilt, add a border, machine quilt, and then bind. I decorate our house at Christmas with a Christmas quilt on every bed!
