Learn Curved Piecing: Drunkard's Path

Intermediate Quilting: Drunkard’s Path & Curved Piecing

Ready to conquer curves? In this intermediate-level quilting class, students will learn the techniques needed to confidently piece smooth, accurate curves using the classic Drunkard’s Path block. We’ll focus on understanding curved templates, proper fabric preparation, pinning (or not pinning!), and sewing techniques that result in precise seams and beautifully matched curves.

Students will practice cutting and piecing Drunkard’s Path blocks while learning tips for pressing, trimming, and troubleshooting common curved-piecing challenges. By the end of class, you’ll have completed blocks and the skills needed to incorporate curved piecing into future quilts with confidence.

Skills covered include:

• Accurate cutting with curved templates

• Sewing smooth curves without puckers or pleats

• Pressing and trimming curved seams

• Tips for layout and design using Drunkard’s Path blocks
