SOFT TOY PLUSHY HANDBAG WORKSHOP

Panel Airs: Monday, May 31st, 11:15 AM PDT / 2:15 PM EDT 

You requested this workshop and we delivered! Join Jessica Corlett for a fun and chatty workshop and learn how to turn a stuffed friend into a bag. This is an easy all-abilities craft activity. There is a small amount of sewing involved which can be done by hand or by sewing machine.

 

Warning: Plushies will be dissected.
