Yesterday I taught my first quilting workshop at Millie Moon in Frome. I was joined by three lovely ladies, who learnt how to make a quilted cushion cover. I absolutely loved the day and Marilyn, Val and Margaret all did a fantastic job and got their cushions finished just before the end of the class. I am so grateful to Becki and Rach at Millie Moon for helping me to make this dream of mine become a reality.
I have been busy planning my workshops and designing my patterns for the rest of the year.
I am teaching an introduction to English paper piecing on 22 September, where participants will learn the basics of this traditional method and then using their finished piece to applique a denim bag.
On 28 October I will be teaching a patchwork drawstring bag. This is a great opportunity to learn to cut pieces using a rotary cutter, construct patchwork and then make a lined drawstring bag.
Finally, I am offering a quilted stocking workshop on 25 November. I am trying not to use the ‘C’ word here but I have to confess I have already been playing with festive fabrics and have started planning my handmade gifts.
If you are interested in booking a place or finding out more, head on over to the Millie Moon website. I am also able to offer a limited number of 1:2:1 sessions if you want help with a specific quilting project. Drop me an email to alittlesewandsow@gmail.com to find out more.
