Fabric Vessels & Caddy

With Lisa Agaran

Sunday, November 12
10 am – 1:00 pm (PST) / 1:00-4:00 pm (Eastern)
Attend Live on Zoom
Non-Zoomer option available (View details below)

Join me in this fun & creative workshop as we turn a pile of fabric scraps into an artistic and functional piece of art. These fabric vessels are perfect for holding your paint brushes, colored pencils and also makes for a great holiday gift. In this easy and fun workshop, I take you through step-by-step in creating a handmade one-of-a-kind vessel where you will incorporate different pieces of fabric and stitching (or embroidery). I will also show you how to bring multiple vessels together to create a caddy.

Non-Zoomer option: If you are unable to make the live Zoom workshop or prefer not to appear on Zoom, not a problem. Instead you can do the workshop through the recording, which is emailed to all the attendees at the end of the day.

*Bonus*
As an added bonus, all who registers for this workshop will automatically be enrolled in the Online Course version of this class so you will have unlimited access to the recording & printed materials.
