About this Event
Welcome to Our 2-Day Patchwork Extravaganza – Get Ready to Paper Piece Like a Pro!
Well, well, well, look who’s decided to dive headfirst into the mesmerizing world of paper piecing. You're either a brave soul or you really like paper cuts. Either way, we're thrilled to have you! Our patchwork tutor is ready to guide you through this delightful maze of fabric and paper, with plenty of laughs (and probably a few groans) along the way.
So, what's the deal? Over the two days, you're going to learn how to create stunning patchwork designs that will make your friends question how you suddenly became so crafty. Don't worry if you're a total newbie or if you’ve got a few patchwork scars already – this course is designed for all skill levels.
You'll be completely immersed in the whimsical world of paper piecing. Get ready to meet fellow fabric fanatics and be guided by an expert instructor who knows their way around a rotary cutter like nobody's business. It's a bonding experience, really – there's nothing quite like the camaraderie that forms over shared mistakes and triumphs in the patchwork trenches.
By the end of this course, you’ll have some seriously impressive patchwork pieces to show off (and maybe even a new addiction – we won’t judge).
Why Paper Piecing?Why not? It's the ultimate test of your patience and precision, with the reward of creating something uniquely beautiful. Plus, it's a great excuse to hoard even more fabric (as if you needed one).
Join Us and Get Ready to Laugh, Learn, and Patchwork Like There’s No Tomorrow!
