Impress your family and friends with a Tuffet footstool that you have put together, using your own colour scheme. In our 2 session workshop, Zoe will guide you to make your Tuffet. 

You will be supplied with your prepaid Tuffet Hardware Kit and be shown how to sew the 8 panels using a fusible foundation pattern. A lesson / assistance in upholstery will be given, so everyone will leave with a beautiful individual Tuffet, to become a conversation piece at home.

Light lunch, tea, coffee and refreshments included on both days.

Bring with you

• Sewing Machine with a ¼ “seam allowance foot.
• Rotary Cutter and Cutting mat
• Add-A-Quarter Ruler 12” or your own ruler
• 64 strips: 2” x 20” of fabric. If you want to coordinate fabrics, you can use a jellyroll of pre-cut 2 ½ “strips but there will be some wastage. If you would like to make one with the wider strips showcasing a feature fabric, you will require 8 strips x 5 1/2" x 20", 16 strips x 2" x 20" and 8 strips 3" x 20".
• Calico 114cm wide x 100cm
• Sewing thread to match the majority of your fabrics ( I often use grey )
• Choices of fabric and 4” square of batting to cover your button.
• Lots of straight pins
• Scissors.
