Make: Pattern of the Month for October 9/23/23 2-4PM

Join me on this Autumnal Equinox to make a Patchwork frog from meant to make from scraps. Pattern of the Month is a workshop reviewing the pattern, materials necessary, and steps to compelte it. I will demo the pattern, and patrons can choose to stay and sew or come back to the Makerspace at their own time to complete the project. Patrons are encouraged to bring the necesary materials to complete this project which include: scraps to equal 18 x 21 inch rectangle, 1 fat quarter, one 18x21 inch piece of batting, one 32 oz bag of poly pellet (or the equivalent of uncooked rice or deer corn), and buttons for eyes. You can search our scrap bin, and opt for 3D printed buttons for eyes. Great for beginners.
