English Paper Piecing Thu, Jun 19, 2025 12:30pm - 3:00pm

Description English Paper Piecing (EPP) is very relaxing and portable so it provides a nice break from our sewing rooms while still satisfying our fabric addictions. Come sit, chat and sew with any EPP project, from beginner to advanced. If you have never tried EPP, I recommend Brimfield Awakenings because it has straight lines, curves and inserts, which will provide you with the confidence to tackle any future EPP project. You will learn different ways to baste (with glue or thread) straight edges or curves, plan your fabric placements for optional "wow", cut (multiples or fussy cut with scissors or rotary blade) and sew invisible yet strong seams using a simple whip or flat back stitch and "knicker knots". Class Fee: $30.00 Instructor: Mary Ellen To register for this class, Stop by or call the Wilmington store: 910.769.2775 or go to our Web Shopping site at: Our Web Shopping Site Instructor Information:
