Tiny, Perfect Squares
3-Hour Workshop
12 pm - 3 pm EST, Saturday, January 23
Small squares, big challenge! Anyone who has ever worked with very small fabric squares knows: sewing them perfectly is not as easy as it looks. The fabric shifts and stretches, and suddenly nothing lines up quite the way it should.
In this workshop, you will learn a special technique for joining even the tiniest squares into perfectly precise units, without paper piecing. Step by step, you will learn what to look out for and how to achieve accurate results.
You’ll leave the workshop with a valuable new technique that you can use and adapt for your future patchwork projects.
