Patchwork Stars A lovely way to ease into the festive season! These patchwork stars are a perfect introduction to the traditional hand-stitched template technique of patchwork, also known as English Paper Piecing (EPP).

Students will learn how to:

• Cut fabric to size

• Cover templates

• Join pieces together

• Add stuffing and finish with a neat closure

• Embellish with ribbons, beads, buttons, or other decorations

Hand-Embroidered Festive Decorations Using a range of simple but effective embroidery stitches and appliqué, you’ll create a unique festive decoration.
