Sardine Workshop
Sardine Class Description:
In this beginner-friendly class, you’ll make a playful sardine pillow using the pattern by Woolly Petals while learning the basics of piecing and sewing gentle curves.
Perfect if you’re comfortable with straight seams and ready to build a new skill, this class focuses on helping you feel confident with curved piecing. We’ll walk through everything step-by-step, from cutting and layout to stitching smooth curves that actually behave.
You’ll leave with a finished (or nearly finished) pillow, a solid introduction to curved sewing, and a fun project that doesn’t take itself too seriously.
