Welcome to Patchwork Soup
Hi, I’m Susan from Sewfeet.com. If you are a sewist, a quilter, a garment maker, a fiber artist, or a home dec sewer, no matter what kind of sewing you do, I am almost sure that you have a large stash of fabric scraps. This course is based on one of my favorite techniques. It is a fun, stress-free technique for making yardage out of your scrap fabrics. Once you have created fabric, you can use it for any project you want. You don’t have to have special patterns. From zippered bags to decorative pillows to journal covers, you’ll sew unique, one-of-a kind projects that no one else has.
What you can do with fabric scraps:
1. Make scrappy quilts to put them to good use.
2. Make small project such zippered pouches and mug rugs.
3. View them as trash and throw them away – NOT!
4. Keep them, letting them pile up in your sewing space as clutter.
5. Use the Patchwork Soup technique to create yardage that you can turn into any project you want.

Your Instructor
Susan has a life-long love of creating and began to use needle and thread at about 10 years of age. This eventually led to earning a degree in Clothing /Textiles and a Master’s in Design, and then to working for BERNINA in both sales and education. For the 20+ years Susan was at BERNINA, she learned to appreciate the importance of using quality tools, specifically focusing in on the power of presser feet. As the editor of The Big Book of Feet…A Guide to BERNINA Presser Feet and Accessories, Susan is a strong proponent for using specialty presser to help you sew better, faster, and more creatively!
Susan created Sewfeet.com as a way to share all types of sewing with both beginners and experienced stitchers, paying particular attention to presser feet and attachments.
