Join me at the Big Penny Social for a special evening of hand stitching. Make a mini quilt with me, using my fabric, threads, tools and techniques. Everyone will come away with a cool hand made piece of quilting that may just be the start of your quilting journey!

Using monochrome or brightly coloured fabric, interesting patterns, oversized shapes, negative space, modern quilting is fun and funky and joyous. The class is two hours long and everything you need is included.
