Hand Quilting 101: Siena Faughnan
Ditch the machine, embrace the fun!
Sunday, February 23rd, 2025
2-5pm
Conventional quilting can be notoriously meticulous and supply-intensive, but this isn’t conventional quilting!!! In this three-hour workshop you’ll learn everything you need to begin a lifelong love affair with the world’s coziest medium. All you need is a needle, thread, and a scrap stash and you’ll be crafting beautiful, functional objects wherever you go. We will explore color, texture, and line and learn about big stitch hand quilting techniques, kawandi-style composition, and the delicious joy that is a quilt sandwich. Leave your rulers at home and come with your scrap stash. You’ll leave with the confidence to collage in cloth and your very own mini quilt which may just be the first of many.
All materials will be provided (but you are encouraged to come with your own fabric scraps!).
Recommended fabrics: shot cottons, linens, linen blends, and other loosely woven fabrics. Give used clothing or linens new life and create an object embedded with memory.
