Fun Fast Fabulous Fabric (Practically) For Free - Mini Trunk Show and Workshop
Make fabulous quilt projects with all of your strip scraps. Large and small we can use them all (mostly). Hate waste? On a budget? This workshop is for you.
My sample for this project uses a combination of re-purposed material, and also a little bit of new, for a stunning result. However, it is possible to make this as a scrap free version too. My mini trunk show will showcase some of the many possibilities for using scraps and will hopefully inspire many new quilts using fabric you already have.
This workshop will teach you how to stitch together your scrap fabric quickly and easily. Once you have this together, we will make a stunning project (or two) that looks like you spent years on it. We just won’t tell anyone just how easy it was.
Or if you just love the design, you can make the quilt without using scraps. It is a fun and fast project.
