Beside the Seaside

In this workshop, students will learn how to piece miniature patchwork blocks on a seaside theme: Beach-huts, Sailing Boats, Fish and a Lighthouse using the foundation method. This involves stitching the patches to a lightweight fabric foundation onto which a design has been stamped or drawn. Blocks can be used to make an individual greeting card or as the beginning of a small wall hanging, cushion or bag. There will be a collection of miniature quilts to study as examples.
