27 lessons | 5 hours
In this course contemporary textiles designer Julius Arthur gives quilting a modern perspective. You’ll learn how to play with shape, experiment with colour, and rethink negative space—transforming fabric into something truly unique. Julius will guide you through the fundamentals of quilt-making, teaching you how to cut, layer, stitch, and construct with confidence. Then, you’ll put your skills into practice with two creative projects, a patchwork wall hanging and an appliqué cushion.
“
I think that quilting is an amazing skill to have - you can really create objects that have memory and connection with other people, with yourself, and that tell stories and can be inspiring and inspired by the things, people and places that we have around us.

I LOVE IT
“I have been loving the gardening courses so much…I couldn’t decide which one to get…so bought a subscription for the year. I love how each one has a different design (in terms of type and color) - so they truly feel like different experiences. So happy I signed up!”
JESSICA, US
It really is great value
“So much insight into a wonderful range of creative, interiors and gardening options. It is really great value. I've most enjoyed learning about paint with Edward Bulmer - and the practical aspects and insights in Rita's courses have also been so useful. ”
