Create a washcloth in simple stitch. As you can see from the photo Tunisian crochet or Afghan crochet is just a little bit different from our standard hooking technique as it uses a long hook and you hold your stitches on the hook - mind blown ! 

In this workshop Sonia will teach you how to create the ‘Simple Stitch’ and create a piece of cloth which will make a super washcloth (we will use a cotton yarn). You will notice that Tunisian crochet is far more dense than normal crochet and makes a more solid fabric perfect for a washcloth. 

The stitches are very simple but you are more likely to get this project done in the time if you have a little crochet experience, that is why we have listed it in the improvers category.

Just bring yourselves and be ready to learn and have fun.

We will provide, yarn, hook, pattern and full instruction from Sonia with a cuppa and cake to keep you going.

Over 5 sewing sessions with some homework you will create this fabulous 'Strawflower' quilt by Living in Loveliness finished size 44 x 44 inches. [110 x 110 cm]. You will have the pattern to keep (RRP £9.99) with instructions and colour photos. 
Once you have booked on I will give you the shopping list (don't forget you can also shop from your stash and/or wardrobe) with instructions on what fabrics to buy. If you need any guidance feel free to call or drop into the studio. You will also need a quarter inch presser foot for your machine. 
Initially we will learn how to cut accurately using the rotary cutter and rulers. Then moving on to creating the blocks. Then piecing the quilt top. Once all that cutting and stitching is done we will create a quilt sandwich and quilt using the machine.  Last but not least we will learn how to attach and finish the binding. 

Every session will be held in the sewing studio upstairs at Stitching Kitchen, we will stop for a cuppa and cake half way through.  
I can’t wait to get started and see how you get along with your strawflower quilt.
