Spicey Spiral Quilt Workshop

September 12, 2025 - September 19, 2025

R700.00

From Simple Fabrics to a Spiral Showpiece in One Workshop.

You’ve probably made a table runner before – but never one quite like this…

The Spicy Spiral Table Runner is bold, eye-catching and looks far more complex than it really is. That’s exactly why this workshop is such a rewarding experience: you’ll learn smart techniques that transform simple fabric choices into something spectacular.

From Fabric to Spiral

Over two half-day workshop days, you’ll take eight fat quarters – arranged from dark to light – and turn them into a flowing spiral design that will bring movement and energy to any table. Using a wedge ruler, you’ll cut and piece with precision, then discover the power of chain piecing to speed up your sewing without losing accuracy.

Structure Meets Creativity

What makes this project so exciting is that it blends structure with creativity. You’ll follow a step-by-step process, but your choice of fabrics and colors ensures no two spirals are ever the same. It’s a chance to see how value and contrast work together, while building confidence with piecing and quilting skills you can carry into other projects.

Bringing It All Together

By the end, you’ll layer your work with batting and backing, quilt in a spiral to enhance the movement, and bind it into a finished runner that looks like it came from a gallery. The process is approachable, the learning is deep, and the result is something you’ll be proud to place at the center of your home – or gift to someone special.

You’ll leave not only with a stunning table runner, but also with new skills, fresh ideas and the confidence to take on quilting challenges you might have avoided before.
