Sequoya Library volunteer and veteran paperfolder Alice Page will lead this intergenerational workshop especially for young people ages 8 and up* attending with an adult companion.

All materials provided. Interested adults are also welcome to register and attend, with or without a companion. If attending with a companion, please register one person in your pair or trio.

Join Gloria W. in learning a paper quilting technique that can be used to decorate and adorn spaces, packages, parcels, and gifts! Make colorful dimensional quilt patterns quickly and easily with paper overlays.  Also known as "iris folding", this technique originated in the Netherlands using just paper and tape and is upgraded with new original designs inspired by traditional quilt blocks. You will be able to use the designs you create for greeting cards or framed art.

Please bring a small scissors and a roll of transparent ("Scotch") tape if possible.  All other materials provided. 

This class is recommended for adults and ages 10+. Space is limited and registration is required - workshop registration is full. Call Pinney Library at 608-224-7100 to be placed on a waiting list.
