Red Red Bobbin Classes & Workshops

We believe that quilt making is a form of self-expression that need not be limited to the choices made by others. To that end our classes & workshops are designed to empower you to pursue your own quilt ideas while learning the skills required to accomplish your vision. To register just click on the word REGISTER in each class description.
Figure out where you sit from the following (+ means the course spans 2 levels but hey, You be the judge!! )
Beginner - I’ve never made a quilt before.
Novice - I’ve done some piecing and I’m adventurous.
Intermediate Plus - I’m ready for a challenge
General Course Requirements include a working sewing machine, rotary cutter and ruler, pins, thread, scissors. Tools are available for purchase in the shop and we will be glad to help you find the right ones for you.
There are no classes currently scheduled due to the pandemic lockdown. Stay tuned. In the meantime here are a series of kits to tickle your imagination and keep you busy!
Kits

RRB’s Roman Tiles - Our take on Kaffe Fassett’s design from Quilts in Burano. First set of kits sold out, and we are awaiting shipment of one fabric to make more kits if there is enough interest.
64” x 76”, $159.95. includes binding.

Refract - a really powerful modern quilt that looks complicated but has NO ‘Y’ seams - no none! Cutting the fabric is the hardest thing to do. A stunning se of Grant Haffner’s digitally printed “Horizon” collection.
Size 59” x 68”, $129.95 includes binding.

RRB’s version of Kaffe’s Geometric Snowballs. His original design is 52” square (why would anyone build such a small SQUARE quilt?) hence we changed it up. Great energy, gender neutral and the first set of kits flew out the door.
Size 56” x 72”, $99.95 including binding
Kaffe uses snowballs blocks in many of his quilts, which is why we recommend using the Creative Grids Folded Corner Clipper that makes tiny to big snowballs; $24.95.

Split Stars - simple construction, lots of Kaffe Collective cool colourway fabric in a traditional looking quilt.
Size 56” x 71”, $132.95 includes binding

Your Goose Is Cooked - for those of us who hate making (or should we say WRECKING) flying geese and also hate appliqué, this is the quilt kit for you! We include Creative Grids Flying Geese ruler (a $54.00 item) and Mistyfuse for raw-edge or even needle-turn appliqué to help you over these two humps (Mountains in my case).
Size 60” x 72”, $153.95 includes binding

Spot-On - RRB’s original design. Uses one 10” tile package (42 pieces) to which we added 6 more squares. A take-off on a Roman Stripe block slashed with two different Kaffe Fassett Spot fabrics inserted.
Size 54” x 72”, $83.95 includes binding.
And for the younger set . . .

Palm Doodle - a star is born with lots of African animals & palm trees (hence the name).
Size 43” x 43”, $79.95 includes binding

Double Doodle - the original “Doodle” is another version of the same quilt with chickens, daisies, and nice bright colours.
Size 43” x 43”, $74.95 includes binding & backing!

Posh Blossom - for all you Quick Curve Quick Curve Ruler fans. The fabric used glows in the dark and has unicorns, fairies etc: very feminine, gentle colours.
Size 65” x 65”, $124.95 includes binding.

Lost Luggage - is a happy little quilt. It’s called that because the birds are flying away with suitcases. I had a flight attendant buy this kit and she said “you should have called it Air Canada.”
40” x 61”, $94.95 includes binding and backing!

Baby in a Playpen - an easy happy quilt with bright colours.
Size 52” x 52”, $69.95 includes binding

May Forest Friends - includes a 42” x 49” panel and 3 yards of 5 different coordinating fabrics. Easy to fussy cut and frame up these adorable little critters. Gender neutral.
Size is up to you, $39.95
