Taught by Faith Hale
This class will be available to view on August 05, 2026.
Craft instructor and homemade gift enthusiast Faith Hale guides you through every step of creating a sweet gingham baby quilt, from piecing patchwork and making a quilt sandwich to machine quilting and attaching the binding. Using just three colors, you'll create a timeless design that's approachable for beginners and full of handmade charm. Sized as a baby quilt, it can also be used as an isolette cover, a size that is often accepted by NICUs to help create a warmer, more comforting environment for babies and their families. Whether you're making your very first quilt or creating a heartfelt gift for a new arrival or a family with a baby in the NICU, this class will give you the skills and confidence to make something both beautiful and meaningful.
Here’s what you’ll need:
  • Cotton fabric for quilt top (2/3 yard dark, 1/2 yard medium, 1/3 yard light)
  • Cotton or 80/20 cotton blend batting - 34" square
  • Cotton backing - 34" square
  • Polyester thread in a neutral color and a color to match your binding fabric
