Patchwork Classes and Workshops

At Packing Shed Patchwork we have several options for patchwork classes and patchwork workshops.

Two-day weekend workshops in crazy patchwork are available. Enjoy learning knew embellishing and embroidery techniques in the garden studio and the company of sewing friends and partake in lunch under the pergola. 'Allow me to do the cooking for you, enjoy being spoilt over the weekend'.

Weekend workshops are held on a Saturday & Sunday. Morning and afternoon tea & lunch, usually held under the pergola or on the verandah, are all provided. Many types of classes are on offer for the student covering crazy patchwork, embelishment techniques, beading, embroidery, traditional hand patchwork and quilting. Student numbers are small (6 maximum) so personal attention can be given to each student.
