To expand your Japanese Fan to a larger size, let me know at sign up.   I will give out fabric requirements for expansion and supply lists with pattern, and Lucille will bring extension papers ($9/double $13/queen $18 king) for you to purchase at the workshop.

If you later determine you cannot attend the workshop, find someone to take your place – we will maintain a waiting list to help you.  Give your pattern to your substitute in time to prepare for the class – there will be no refunds.

Preparation: Prior to class you will need to purchase and cut out all of your fabrics. We will offer optional cutting workshops to help you get ready for the class.  This pattern is entirely paper pieced.   You need to have experience with paper piecing prior to the class.
