Join us for a two-day bilingual quilt-making workshop with Maria G. Herrera, assisted by Stitches of the Soul quilting and fiber art group of NMMA. Participants will go home with their own quilt inspired by vivid summer florals.

In this two-day workshop, students will use floral templates to make their own 8” x 10” quilt. Techniques employed in the project include appliqué, embroidery, and sewing machine use. No prior experience is needed.
