See What’s Coming in August

Description

We returned to basics with a short series on rotary cutting, which had become such a fundamental technique in patchwork. As well as basic tips from Valerie, which you can find by clicking here, there were:

• how to cut strips and squares, to open this video click here

All these skills will be needed if you want to fully enjoy Valerie’s workshop using a bright layer cake of Sunprints by Alison Glass from Makower. You can find this video on our website by clicking here. As well as you want to enjoy her quick strip children’s quilt, which is also availabe on our website, just click here. And Jennie shows you how to make the most of your Dresden plate shape and even creating a turtle. To open this workshop just click here.

Then we thought you would enjoy being creative with Helen Deighan with her mess-free dyeing in a plastic bag technique. You will see you can do it on a kitchen table with very little special equipment and even the grandchildren could be helpful. In result, dyed fabric is so very individual and unique.

And there was another workshop designed to be shared with the younger age group from Kate Findlay with her simple embroidered lavender bags. This workshop is also available on our website by clicking here.
