English Paper Piecing is a method of patchwork where fabric is wrapped around shapes made of thin paper of cardboard. Once the shapes are covered in fabric we will then hand stitch them together to form a design.

Our quilting tutor Susan will take you through the whole process and share all her hints and tips for to produce a beautiful design that can be used as part of a quilt or as a decoration on another me made item. This is a lovely, mindful project that you don’t need any prior sewing experience to be able to participate in.

All materials are provided for this class but if you have any small pieces of fabric that you would like to use up then please feel free to bring them along.

I have been sewing for as long as I can remember. My Mum & Gran taught me how to knit and sew. I have been doing patchwork and quilting for around 12 years. For the last 10 years have been running a business making memory quilts & memory animals. When I’m not sewing for my business I enjoy English Paper Piecing as it is really relaxing to do, it’s hand sewing and fairly portable too so I can carry it about easily. My favourite machine patchwork technique is half square triangles. They are a simple block to sew so come together quickly but they can be sewn together in so many different ways making them really versatile.

I love tutoring at Sew Confident as I get to chat about my passions patchwork, quilting & Memory animal.
