Join us for our monthly meeting at the Grace Company located 6748 S Redwood Rd, West Jordan.
In this hands-on class, we'll delve into the exciting world of fabric portraits, where you’ll transform ordinary fabric scraps into stunning, detailed faces. With a focus on creativity and individuality, you'll learn how to use simple materials to create expressive and characteristically charming portraits.
This class is perfect for quilters of all levels who are looking to have fun, expand their skills and explore new techniques in fabric art. Everyone will come away with a fabulous fabric portrait.
