Learn to sew a Christmas appliqué cushion cover

Learn to sew a Christmas appliqué cushion cover in this festive 3 hour sewing class.

Appliqué involves sewing one/multiple fabrics onto a different fabric arranged into a pattern or picture. It is a great project for unleashing your creativity and using up fabric scraps. The photos are just examples of my ideas but feel free to design your own!!

They would make a fantastic handmade Christmas gift for someone or to proudly put on display at home and get out of the trimmings box each year.

You will learn:

• How to appliqué using Bondaweb and the sewing machine
• How to make an envelope cushion cover

Any hand sewing of embellishments may need to be finished off at home.

N.B. Although this is advertised as a Christmas cushion workshop, designs are not limited to Christmas – anything is possible, you choose!

Equipment and Materials:

• Janome sewing machines and basic sewing tools provided to use.
• White cotton fabric for the cushion cover will be provided.
• A selection of fabric remnants and trimmings will be available to choose from but please feel free to bring your own along.
• Bondaweb included
• Tea & Coffee included.

Cost £40
