Re-Purposing Denim Into a Table-Runner Workshop

Virtual Workshop with Sandra Johnson

Saturday December 12, 1-4 pm

Non-member registration opens Oct 30

Learn to deconstruct old denim jeans into new and beautiful quilts. Participants will learn how to save all those favorite pockets, zippers, grass stains, and rips to make them into a very warm and useful one-of-a kind quilt. The first session, on Friday afternoon, will involve learning how to deconstruct jeans. Participants will then have time after this workshop to deconstruct enough jeans on their own for the quilted table runner. The second session, on Saturday afternoon, would involve learning how to make a quilted table runner. Sandra Johnson has specialized cameras that allow participants to see each stage of the work close up, including a camera on her hand. http://sandrajohnsondesigns.com/presentations-parties-workshops/
