Join us for this in-person workshop with the one and only, Giuseppe of Giucy Giuce! This workshop features Giucy Giuce's pattern RE - currently only available through the workshop!
Re is a modular pattern in which the sewist decides what size blades (from 3 choices) they would like to use and also the frequency in which the blades appear. Meaning you can choose to eliminate some blades entirely. Make the blades the same size, make them all different, leave spaces. This creates countless variations!
Giucy Giuce will share his tips and tricks for best practices when foundation paper piecing and sewing curves. Don't miss the chance to be the first to take this new workshop!
Lunch will be provided. RE Pattern included.
LIMITED SPOTS AVAILABLE.
