SEWING MACHINE REQUIRED, and a basic sewing knowledge is preferable, such as, know your way around your machine, but otherwise it is suitable for all sewing enthusiasts.
Patchwork is very much on trend and being embraced by many designers. Quoted in last month’s edition of Vogue...
“You see the touch of the human hand right there; in the obvious seams, clashing patterns patched together in the exposed imperfections” .... all part of its appeal.
Over the four weeks you will make a beautiful modern take on patchwork, which will result in a cosy Cot Quilt. You will learn about cutting out, construction and what terms such as mitred corners and stitch in the ditch are: all the skills you need if you want to ‘go bigger’ in your own future project. Your facilitator will also demonstrate free motion embroidery and applique techniques.
Masterclass: You can take the time to do any last-minute finishes to your four-week project, but in addition you will create a stunning quilted and lined Liberty Print Pouch with a zip! Perfect to hold all those girly bits and bobs, or simply add that little touch of glamour to your day.
