About This Course

Join us as we combine modern techniques with a zero-waste mindset, transforming fabric scraps into stunning quilts. Whether you’re an experienced beginner or a seasoned quilter, you’ll love diving into the art of quilting, while learning how to make your projects sustainable and meaningful.

We’ll practice techniques on small samples, then apply them in a design of your choosing to construct a cushion cover, wall-hanging or a textile piece to be used in a future project. We’ll talk about fibres, textile production, and textile waste amongst other important topics. We have a sewing machine available for each student but you can bring your own if you like.
