Crazy Patchwork Christmas Stocking - with Maria Champion-Forster
$43.00 - $51.00
10 am to 12:30 pm
Learn the charming crazy patchwork technique while making a small (23cm) Christmas stocking, perfect for hanging on the tree or gifting small treasures. Discover how a little fabric and a handful of scraps can come together into something beautiful. Your chosen fabrics can take your stocking from playful and childlike to elegant and grown-up. Along the way, pick up skills that go well beyond this project, like working with bias binding and finishing raw edges neatly, techniques you can carry into other projects like oven mitts and quilts.
Suitable for older teens and adults with an interest in handmade Christmas decorations.
Note: Students will begin hand-sewing the binding in class but may need to finish this step at home.
