Learn foundation paper piecing from published pattern author Sue Cook. This specialized workshop will teach you hands on (you bring your own machine).

Workshop price includes pattern and foundation paper pad, your own 8' table with Koala sewing chair, access to community cutting and pressing stations, ADA accessible bathroom, and food and beverage area.

| Instructor Bio: | "I started quilting in 2000 with a hand quilting class because I thought if I didn't like that part there was no point in learning anything else. I soon realized that there was more than one way to make a quilt. My next class was a basic beginner class. My third class was paper piecing. After that class ended, I realized that if I could draw something with straight lines, I most likely could sew it and I designed my first original quilt. When I took it to my local quilt shop to find binding fabric I was told that I should publish a pattern, so I did! Twenty five years later, I have about 3 dozen patterns and my designs have been in a dozen different magazines and a couple of books. I recently designed a pattern for a new line of fabric from Timeless Treasures and also one for Island Batiks and I'm waiting to hear back about other designs I have submitted to them." |
