How to Work with Denim and Quilt Wearables with Sandra Johnson
(Show 2805) The effervescent Sandra Johnson joins Alex to show her how to deconstruct denim for use in both quilts and clothing. She also uses quilts in her wearables and talks to Alex about where to find quilts (and denim) that are perhaps ready to be ‘cut up’ for another use. Sandra also finds that handwork is her “yoga” and demonstrates the Sashiko stitching that she uses on both her quilts and wearables. And don’t forget to stay tuned for the quilted wearable fashion show featuring members of The Quilt Show crew.
