Kawandi Quilting Workshop with Sandra Streeter:

​

Join me for a creative and relaxing workshop exploring Kawandi, a traditional quilting technique from Western India. Using only a simple hand running stitch, you’ll create a colourful, textured piece while embracing the sustainable practice of reusing fabrics.

​

This session is perfect for both beginners and experienced makers, offering a fresh and mindful approach to quilt making that can be adapted for full-size quilts or smaller panels for bags, cushions, and other quilted creations.

​
