Sometimes you find yourself with a small amount of a special fabric that you just can’t part with. Rather than letting it languish on a shelf or in a storage box, put your special scraps and limited supply fabrics to use in a most fabulous way. These Pint Size Pocket Quilts are small enough to fit… well… in your pocket!
Join us for a fun two-hours and finish up with your own tiny treasure that you can use to brighten up special little spaces or even turn them into key chain fobs, purse medallions, and pins for your jacket or wrap. Make a few of these wee wonders and group them together to create a piece of wall art. These small-scale fiber art creations with a big impact are fun and quick to make so be prepared to lose yourself with us for a couple of hours of creativity.
Supplies you will need:
Sewing Machine
A few small pieces of special fabric
A small piece of backing fabric
A small fabric strip to make your sashing
Neutral colored thread for piecing (or thread that will match your finished quilt)
Cutting mat
Rotary cutter
