Spend a peaceful day immersed in the soothing art of English Paper Piecing (EPP) with Miss Leela. In this gentle, five-hour workshop, you’ll learn the foundations of this beautiful hand-pieced patchwork technique while creating your very own Hexie Flower Mug Rug – a charming, functional keepsake perfect for your stitching nook or as a gift.
Guided step-by-step, you’ll explore how to:
• Choose and cut fabric for EPP
• Baste paper shapes using the Sewline glue pen
• Piece hexagons together using the whip stitch
• Use the locking knot for secure stitching
• Remove papers with care
• Hand appliqué your flower to a base
• Add simple hand quilting for a soft, textured finish
• Create a tidy mitred turned edge to complete your piece
This is the perfect introduction to EPP for beginners, or a lovely refresher for those with some experience who want to slow down and enjoy the process.
A complete kit of EPP essentials is included, along with access to a beautiful selection of fabrics and threads to make your project uniquely yours. Come join Miss Leela and discover the mindful magic of stitching by hand.
A high tea style lunch will be served along with morning tea
