Come and try a morning of scrappy quilting with the queen of scraps herself, Mel Lewis from Sugar Bowl Crafts. Local artist Mel will help you think about colour theory to create a modern and fun block ready to turn into a statement cushion.
During the session you will create a patchwork block using both applique and piecing skills, and then (if time allows) turn it into a envelope cushion. This cushion would be a beautiful christmas present for that special someone.
