Saturday October 17th
9:00am to 3:00pm
Level 1: You can thread and operate a sewing machine.
Curious about improv quilting? Here’s another great entry in Robin O’Neil’s Improv quilt series!
Robin says: This is a collage workshop. We are NOT making realistic birds, but birds we like to imagine. There are no templates, no patterns, no rules, and no judgement! This is FUN! We’ll use scraps of fabric in solids or prints. This will require no special sewing skill. The pieces can be appliquéd by hand or machine or both and there are no “bad” birds.
Taught by Robin O’Neil.
