Upcycled Oven Mitt Workshop with Natalie Baxter, April 15, 2023

In this one day workshop, we will transform found fabrics into functional oven mitts using hand sewing and quilting techniques. Beginner and expert hand sewers are welcome. All tools and materials will be provided, but feel free to bring your own fabric or old clothing to make your oven mitt extra unique.
