Discover the beautiful art of Kinusaiga, a traditional Japanese no-sew fabric technique that transforms colorful fabric scraps into stunning works of art. In this beginner friendly class, you’ll learn how to create a decorative design by layering fabric into a pre-cut foam board. There is no sewing required! We’ll cover fabric selection, cutting, placement, and finishing techniques as you complete your own unique Kinusaiga project. Whether you’re a quilter looking for a new way to use treasured fabric scraps or simply enjoy exploring new crafts, you’ll leave with a beautiful piece of art ready to display or give as a gift.
