Diaper Patterns

Scroll down to see picture

Class Description: What are Diaper Patterns? Where can I use them? How can I make up my own?

This fun fast mini-class starts with a lecture (with handouts) plus stitched examples of diaper patterns. After the lecture, students make their small project. The model project is an eyeglass case (finishing instructions included), but alternate uses (Christmas ornament, box top) are suggested.

Diaper patterns are the most useful in needlework because they are multi-directional. Learn how to make your own diaper patterns.
