*Create DIY Textile Arts Festival by Mancuso - June 10-12, 2021

 *Create DIY Textile Arts Festival by Mancuso, June 10-12

The virtual Quiltfest shows that have been presented by Mancuso Show Management have been really solid and impressive. Now they are selling tickets for an online textile arts festival, one in a series they started in January. The latest version of Create DIY will run from June 10-12. All the lectures and workshops will be Zoomed and the classes include not just quilting but also dyeing, crochet, paper collage, etc. 

Meg Cox wants to especially give a shout out for Liza Lucy's workshops, especially one on English Paper Piecing (EPP). This is for beginners and because she learned from her, she knows how passionate Liz Lucy is about EPP and that she's a terrific teacher. The workshop comes with a kit which is complete and thoughtful. She is doing two other classes as well you might enjoy. Go here for more info and to register for Create DIY in June.
