Intro to English Paper Piecing with Sailor Holladay Workshop, 8/23/25, 9:30am-12:30pm

In this class we will be learning the basics of English Paper Piecing (EPP) and then appliqué our EPP onto a small mug rug. Once learned, EPP is very relaxing and a wonderful quilting technique for portable, non-electric stitching. All materials for your first EPP mug rug are provided by our instructor, Sailor Holladay, but you are welcome to bring your own if you prefer (and we have many supplies here at Craft Emporium to help feed your EPP love): Quilting fabric scraps bigger than 2 inches 50 wt or 60 wt cotton thread for piecing (preferred brands are Wonderfil Efina and Aurifil, both of which Craft Emporium carries) A 5 inch by 5inch piece of backing fabric for stitching EPP shapes onto A 5 inch by 5inch piece of batting  A 6 inch by 6 inch piece of fabric for the back of the mug rug Embroidery thread for hand quilting Milliner's needle Size 10 ALL CLASSES ARE AT THE KNITTED WIT/CRAFT EMPORIUM STUDIO:19959 E Burnside, Portland, 97233https://goo.gl/maps/FRTLEz64UBi6RMif9 We are wheelchair accessible.
