FASHIONSKOOL

         Cut & Sew a Patchwork Cushion

​

Patchworking is a big fashion trend right now  and uses up fabrics which might otherwise have ended up in landfill. At FASHIONSKOOL we are extremely conscious to avoid waste and have accumulated a giant bag of useable and very beautiful fabric scraps over the years. The patchwork cushion project is an brilliant way to use up these scraps.

​

This workshop is ideally suited to those who have already used a sewing machine and are looking for a simple but rewarding textile project. Begin by selecting and coordinating your fabrics.  You'll then be shown how to cut out, piece together and stitch a gorgeous envelope-style cushion, with a basic patchwork squared front. Pick up lots of machine-sewing tips before you leave the workshop with new and improved sewing skills as well as a useful cushion to treasure and be proud of.

​

All equipment, materials, including a cushion pad, and light refreshments are provided. Bring your slippers to wear and a packed lunch, weather permitting we'll picnic in the garden.
