Workshop - Holiday Hexi Ornaments

Class Description:&nbsp;Join us for a festive ornament-making workshop using English Paper Piecing (EPP). We&rsquo;ll be working with hexagons, so get ready to look at the season through a six-sided lens! Whether you&rsquo;re already familiar with EPP or have dabbled in the technique, this workshop is a chance to enjoy the rhythm of hand piecing while putting those Christmas fabric scraps to good use. We&rsquo;ll share tips, techniques, and plenty of time to stitch at a relaxed pace.&nbsp; Before the holiday rush really takes off, give yourself permission to slow down, settle in, and enjoy some quiet creative time. You&rsquo;ll use your EPP skills to make beautiful Christmas ornaments&mdash;small, satisfying projects that bring a handmade touch to your tree or make thoughtful gifts. Come for the hexagons, stay for the stitching, conversation, and the chance to see Christmas from a whole new angle!Rachel will have a few ornament designs to choose from. How many you ask? We will see how many she comes up with before the class! (At least 3). About the Instructor: Rachel Mathews is a lifelong sewer, starting as a child making doll clothes from scraps under her mother&rsquo;s sewing table. As a 13 year old she bought her first sewing machine with baby sitting money. The quilting began 45 years ago with templates, scissors and a needle and thread. Oh how things have changed.&nbsp; Over time Rachel has mastered new quilting techniques as they became the thing to do earning many ribbons and even a CQA award. Throughout the years she has always retained a love of handwork, finding it relaxing. That is where the English Paper Piecing bug began. She has made several EPP projects; most original design. Many have won ribbons in our our own guild shows.&nbsp; Rachel can&rsquo;t wait to share her love of EPP with you!&nbsp; &nbsp;The Fine Print &hellip;<ul fr-original-style="text-align: start;" style="text-align: start; box-sizing: inherit;"><li fr-original-style="" style="box-sizing: inherit;">Waitlist:&nbsp;After the maximum number of participants per workshop are enrolled, we establish a waiting list.
