Quilting for Beginners

Learn how to make a “sampler” patchwork quilt in under a month!

Who is this course perfect for?

  • You know the basics of how to use your sewing machine, but you’re overwhelmed by all the supplies and patterns and don’t know where to start.
  • You’ve searched around YouTube and Pinterest and saw too many patterns to narrow it down.
  • You tried a “beginner” pattern but even that was too difficult for you to understand.
  • You know some basic quilting terms and have completed a few sewing projects but you’d really like to improve your skills.
  • You love giving and receiving handmade gifts but you have no idea how to get started.

If this sounds like you, then you’re in the right place! We’re so excited to help you build strong foundational tools that you can use in any quilting project going forward!

In this course you’ll have:

  • 20 pre-recorded, on-demand, detailed videos taught by Ellie the Quilter which outline EVERYTHING you need to know about quilting from start to finish.
  • A comprehensive Learner’s Guide (pdf download) to support the videos, which includes an exhaustive glossary of quilting terms.
  • A complete Pattern Booklet (pdf download) with 12 block patterns and instructions to make binding.
  • Lifetime access through your Mojave Farms Quilt Co. account to your course so that you can refer back to the videos and supporting documents whenever you need!

By the end of the course you’ll:

  • Know all about quilting terms and supplies.
  • Understand which fabric and thread to pick for which project and how to match fabrics and colors together to create a cohesive block design.
  • Figure out which fabric preparation and supplies are truly worth your time and money.
  • Create 12 traditional quilting blocks that can join together to create a “sampler” quilt; these blocks can blend all together or be used individually when you design your own quilts!
  • Know all the tips and tricks to cut fabric precisely.
  • Understand how to lay out your quilt blocks to create a balanced quilt design.
  • Learn how to create a “quilt sandwich” and baste your layers together.
  • Figure out which quilting design works best for you as a beginner on a domestic machine.
  • Know how to make your own binding and finish your quilt.
  • Have a completed child size quilt that you can gift to a loved one or keep for yourself!

You may think, “Ellie, I just don’t have the time to learn all these great skills!” I’ve been there! Work, family life….sure, things come up and get in the way of our hobbies. That’s why we’ve developed this course to be a “go at your own pace” style! You’ll have lifetime access to your course, the PDF downloads, and especially the videos! You can start whenever you’d like and pause when you need to. You can easily get through the entire course in a month or less, or spread out the videos however you need. Our goal is to get you quilting by the end of the course and not to cause pressure or stress to keep up!

  • About the Instructor

    I’m Ellie, known as Ellie the Quilter on social media. I’m the owner, quilt designer, and educator of Mojave Farms Quilt Co. I’ve been quilting, sewing, and anything else creative since childhood and formally began designing and publishing quilt patterns in 2021. We launched the website in 2022 so we could include fabric, notions, and quilt kits to help quilters make the quilt patterns that I designed. I’m so honored to be involved in your burgeoning quilting journey! I have put so much time, effort, and love into creating this course, and I hope you not only enjoy and learn from it, but that you would share your final quilts with us. Over the years, quilting has brought me so much joy and peace as a self-care hobby, and I am convinced it will do the same for you.
