About the event
Join our 'Happy Scrappy Zig Zag' workshop to have a blast while creating beautiful fabric art from scraps. In this workshop, you will master the basics and explore the techniques and importance of zig-zag and overlock stitches. We'll have fun discovering the significance of these stitches and their multiple uses. Additionally, we'll cover topics such as adjusting the length and width of your machine, choosing between different stitches, understanding the differences between a serger/overlock machine and a sewing machine, and determining when you might need one. The project for the workshop will be an oversized, joyous, scrappy coaster - not just your ordinary coaster - which will surely inspire you. I'll bring numerous examples to showcase the artistic applications of this concept. In-class sewing projects: Scrappy Happy Coaster
