Cathedral Windows - Thurs 13th, 27th Nov, 4th Dec 10am - 12pm
In this workshop you will learn how to produce this lovely three dimensional block using a mix of hand and sewing machine work. Using origami-like folding, manipulating and stitching squares of plain fabric and inserting pieces of patterned fabric you will explore the beautiful hand patchwork technique of cathedral windows. This classic block looks complicated but is deceptively simple once you understand the technique. You will create cathedral window block that you will be able to extend to make a table runner or cushion. This technique can be used to make really lovely Christmas decorations for your home.
