Intro to Patchwork

with Rose Ponizil

$150

Ever wonder what to do with leftover fabric scraps? Patchwork is an excellent way to put those pieces to use and create a little work of art.
In this beginners workshop you will learn some basic techniques for sewing patchwork like making a "log cabin" block and checkers (the fast and easy way!)
All materials will be provided and each student will have the chance to make their very own, one-of-a-kind, patchwork block. This workshop is perfect for someone who is new to sewing, or someone who has some sewing experience, but who wants a refresher. More experienced sewists are welcome too!

All machines and materials are provided.
