*Lectures & Workshops*

Our December lecture is by Natalya Aikens,  ‘Sustainable Practices in Art Quilts’.

What materials can you use in an art quilt? Anything you can stitch through! There is a certain thrill you get when buying new fabric or thread, but what if you instead got a thrill from figuring out new uses for old materials? Natalya goes through all the things you can stitch by hand and by machine to add an unexpected and wonderful texture to your artwork.


Learning all the tricks at Debbie Bein’s November workshop!
