Every sewist has that box. You know, the one overflowing with fabric scraps that you just know you’re going to use someday. But somehow, “someday” never comes…and the scraps just keep growing, and growing, and growing!
Well, lets put those scraps to work!
Join Cathy for a fun, two-day workshop where we’ll turn your scrap stash into something useful, beautiful, and completely your own. You’ll learn practical ways to organize and manage your scraps, explore color theory, and discover how unexpected colors and prints can come together in ways you might never have considered.
And the best part? You'll leave with 1/2 yard of usable fabric made from your own scraps!!
Come ready to play, experiment, and look at those too small to use pieces in a whole new way. Your overflowing scrap bin might just be hiding your next favorite fabric.
