Upcoming Workshops

February 3, 2026 Workshop:
Andrea Hoke

  • Learn to conquer curved seams as you stitch the Metro Rings quilt, a pattern reminiscent of the beloved Double Wedding Ring.  Your will use the Quick Curve Ruler by Sew Kind of Wonderful for this project. Starting with a roll of precut strips, you will utilize strip piecing techniques and then use your ruler to cut out the curves and trim down your oversized blocks.  This method allows you to more quickly complete what used to be considered a complex pattern.

    Make it modern or vintage, it’s up to you!

November 13, 2025 Workshop:

  • Make your very own arpillera. I will show you how to build your composition in stages, just like the women of Chile did! Make your arpillera reflect a social justice issue you feel strongly about (as the women of Chile did), or design it around a place or event special to you. New skills will be stuffed appliqué, three-dimensional figures, and decorative stitching. I structure the workshop to build community with your guild, just as the Chilean women used this time as their sewing therapy. Throughout the workshop, I read passages from the Chilean women, describing what their sewing groups meant to them, and how making their arpilleras helped them cope with what was happening around them.

    Indicate when you sign up whether you want to make one from scratch, or from my pattern ($10) or kit ($25).
