Join us Sunday March 23rd from 2 - 4 pm for an afternoon of English paper piecing! Learn the basics of English Paper Piecing by creating a flower out of hexagon templates. Contrary to it's name, this workshop is about quilting -- it's a traditional method of hand sewing smaller pieces together that hold their shape by being attached to paper. Once finished, the paper is removed and you can continue creating!
All materials will be provided to you to create with, including tea towels and tote bags to create on!
