Upcoming Events and Exhibitions

Come and join us for our workshop with Alex Kingswell at Epperstone Village Hall, 11 am to 5 pm on Sunday 14th March 2027. Please note the start and finish time.

This is a fun technique that keeps you guessing - revealing its charm only in the final stages.

In this workshop we will create a striking design using the ‘windmill’ technique. Those who joined my Windmills workshop in 2022 will remember the process. This workshop will be slightly more challenging as we will use smaller blocks, but should still be accessible to those new to piecing. We will talk about colour - looking at how to manipulate tone, contrast and hue to create drama. You will practise accurate cutting and piecing. 

Accuracy will ensure success. Once the technique is mastered, you can use it to make many more interesting designs.

You can choose to make your piece in one of two sizes - 16 inches or 24 inches. An equipment list will be issued before the day. Confidence with a rotary cutter and a sewing machine is assumed.
