This approach of sewing blocks with strips goes quick and easy and we'll use lots of fun scraps to make a string diamond!

1756 W Lunt Ave

This workshop is full, but sign up for the mailing list to be notified when spots open up.

WORKSHOP DATE: Saturday OCT 3rd, 2-4pmThis traditional approach for using up small scraps is improvisational and wild. Building squares of 'string' pieces is a different sewing technique than the other ways we construct patchwork, and can allow more freedom and movement in your designs. This method is also used in more exacting patterns for paper piecing.All experience levels welcome, fabric, notions, and shared machines provided. Bring your own machine if you would like to use it, or if you don't know how to use it I can show you.The studio is located in a second-story walk-up, with no elevator. We have a cozy tea and coffee setup and you're welcome to bring your own snacks. Also you can take off your shoes and bring slippers if you are so inclined! Masking is required, please bring your own or wear provided. Please arrive on time or a little early so we can make the most of the afternoon.Follow @queer.quilting.chi on instagram to see images from past workshops and join the mailing list.queer quilting is a welcoming workshop series focused on using recycled fabrics to create artworks and generate queer community in Chicago.
