Social Justice Sewing Academy Community Quilt Building Workshop



This workshop starts with a brief overview and show and tell exploring methods and materials for creating community quilts. From there, we will go on to work together to piece a community quilt based on quilt blocks created by students who have participated in Social Justice Sewing Academy quilt block making workshops.

Just bring your sewing machine, rotary cutter, and some thread. Everything else will be provided!

Please register even though it is free as lunch will be provided, so we need a head count. (please let us know if you have any dietary restrictions!)

Please let us know if you sign up for this class but will not be able to attend and we will invite another person from the waitlist so we can be sure to fill all the spots!

You can learn more about The Social Justice Sewing Academy at www.sjsacademy.org
