You will need to bring along your own choice of 100% cotton fabrics\, threads and equipment listed below\, each of us are unique and have our own tastes when it comes to colour\, style and design. \nThis is a fun and creative quilting course that delivers a great sense of satisfaction\, all the while learning new techniques and immersing yourself into a creative space that can really help to shift your focus from the “every day” busyness of life to being completely in the moment. \nI have a few motif templates of a Robin\, Ostrich\, Heron\, Chicken\, Duck\, Swan\, Dog\, Cat\, Fish or Cow silhouettes\, which are available to use during the session time.
