Supply list
  • A jersey that is at least two sizes bigger than you wear. I wear a large shirt and get a 3x or 4x jersey.

  • If the jersey is mesh, you will need 1 ½ yards of fabric that is a solid color and the same color as your jersey. I usually use a cotton fabric

  •  1 ½ yards of lining fabric

  • 30” separating zipper

  • 2 - 10” zippers for pockets

  • Batting or stabilizer for loft - I use a cotton batting

  • Thread - I use cotton, but can use polyester for a stronger thread

  • Rotary cutter

  • Mat

  • Ruler

  • Fabric scissors

  • Paper scissors

Instructor: Amy Pressly
Instructor Bio: Hello, my name is Amy, and I have been a crafter all my life. I grew up in a family of quilters and remember fondly my grandmother and her sisters hand quilting. I started quilting about nine years ago when my daughter was expecting our first grandchild. After one quilt, I was hooked. I am a retired educator who taught secondary mathematics for eight years and school administration for 26 years. I retired in 2022 so I could have more time to craft and spend time with my family. I love being able to use my teaching skills to help people learn to quilt. I can’t wait to get you hooked, too!
