Confetti Cushion Workshop with Jemima Flendt

Come and spend a lovely afternoon here at Calico & Ivy with our guest teacher Jemima Flendt.

Working with one of Jemima's most loved patterns, Confetti, use machine piecing to create your own beautiful cushion.  Jemima will guide you through all of the steps which will translate into skills you can apply to many future projects - from fabric selection, cutting, machine piecing, machine quilting and so much more. This class is perfect to build your sewing confidence and learn all of Jemimas clever tricks and tips.

The Confetti Cushion is a great design to showcase your favourite fabrics - resulting in a cushion that will make a big impact no matter where you place it! The extra large size means it will look good on your bed, couch or even as floor cushions. If you fall completely in love with the Confetti pattern, Jemima also has the full quilt pattern available through us.
