Patchwork Duffle Bag
What you will be doing: Using the Patchwork Duffle pattern by Knot and Thread, we’ll go through the whole process of piecing and assembling a one-of-a-kind duffle bag just for you! Great for quilters who are curious to try out bag making, and for other types of sewers who want to dip their toes into quilting! We’ll work through piecing the patchwork that will make up the exterior of your bag, quilting, binding all your seams, and installing bag hardware. This class includes free studio time to work on your project.
