Service Description

Learn the incredible art of English Paper Piecing with Johanna Masko! A great choice for precise, geometric patchwork, English Paper Piecing is completely sewn by hand. This fun, take-it-anywhere technique shows off clever fussy cuts and is a beautiful way to use your favourite scraps. In addition to traditional hexagons, this method works equally well for diamonds, half-hexagons, jewel shapes and more. This 3 hour workshop is tailored for all levels of sewing experience. Newbies and veterans alike will benefit from the skills taught in this fun class. A sewing machine is not required. MATERIAL REQUIREMENTS: Fabric: • Assorted scraps of quilting cotton fabric at least 3” square and/or Fat Quarters (we will be working on a “rosette” with 7 patches) • Bring as many scraps as you’d like – the more the merrier! Notions: • Template plastic or other thin plastic (dollar store placemat), approx. 6” x 6” • Glue stick (office supply type) • Paper scissors • Full sized stapler (not a mini version) and staples • Claw-style staple remover • Single hole punch • Fabric scissors and snippy scissors • Hand sewing needle • Thread to match fabrics • Thimble and/or needle threader, if desired • Mechanical pencil • White freezer paper (provided by instructor) With expert guidance and hands-on practice, you'll elevate your sewing and quilting skills to the next level by mastering this beautiful and useful technique.
