Opportunity to learn Seminole piecing

On Friday morning, June 26. Chris Kirsch will offer a three-hour workshop on Seminole piecing. Seminole piecing is a unique and colorful patchwork technique developed by the Seminole people of south Florida. It involves creating intricate designs by piecing colorful strips of fabric in horizontal bands. This method allows for intricate designs with minimal waste of fabric.
Simple strip piecing, cross-cutting, and straight or diagonal re-sewing, can add a border that takes your quilt from simple to simply fantastic. Samples of different Seminole patterns will be made to keep as a reference for future projects, or they may be stitched into your own “Seminole Sampler.”

Cost for a half-day workshop for guild members is $30. A kit is required at an additional cost of $15/student. The kit will include all the fabric necessary to make five different border samples. The additional supply list will be posted on the ICS web site.
