WORKSHOP DETAILS:

In this three-day workshop we’ll make the Rue Quilt Coat from Spaghetti Western Sewing.

The Rue quilt coat is inspired by nonnas, vintage house coats, workwear, mischief, and mornings you can’t be bothered to get out of bed so you take the bed with you. It features bias trim, a color-blocked collar, split side hems, bound seams, and has a relaxed/oversized fit for layering. 

WHAT'S INCLUDED

All fabric, notions, and equipment are included. Each participant will have a dedicated sewing machine to work on during class. A copy of the digital pattern will be sent to participants at the end of the workshop.
