Description
Upcycle your favourite hoodie, t-shirt, jean jacket, or tote bag with a custom 10-inch quilt block. If you would like to pick your own block or bring one you already have, you're more than welcome to. The class will include sewing and learning how to sew a Constellation quilt block, but you can choose the design that suits you best.
In this hands-on workshop, you’ll learn the full process from start to finish: how to accurately cut your fabrics, piece your block, and applique it neatly onto the item you’ve brought. This class is a great way to refresh an old garment while building confidence in both piecing and applique techniques.
