Slow Stitching the English Paper Piecing Way
Looking for a place to slow down after the holidays for a few hours? Come take a breather in this meditative class! You’ll join other like-minded makers and create something beautiful in this new class for English Paper Piecing (EPP). EPP is a hand-sewing technique that is simple, relaxing and habit-forming. Using fabric scraps and just two template shapes, a hexagon and a square, you’ll learn all the steps you need to create this Lucy Boston block — a beautiful kaleidoscopic pattern. From there, you can turn them into a table runner or even a quilt.

Instructor Bio: Diane began sewing at age 8, but it wasn’t until the mid 2000s that Diane dusted off her sewing machine and returned to quilting, which she’d done sporadically through the years. Needing a bit of a refresher in quilting techniques, Diane took a class at Cate’s (Intro to Quilting) after she and her husband relocated to Guilford, and it’s been “quilting love” ever since! An experienced teacher as well as nurse and attorney, she is excited about teaching quilting, and sharing her love of fabric, quilt designs and all things quilt-y!
