Crafting as Therapy Series

Join Emily Steffen for a live crafting session where she’ll guide you through making a delightful scrappy quilted potholder (or coaster)—a simple, stress-free project designed to promote relaxation and mindfulness. This event is all about slowing down, embracing the creative process, and reconnecting with yourself through crafting. Click here to download the free pattern.

Emily will share tips on stress-free sewing techniques, how to let go of perfection, and how crafting can serve as a therapeutic way to improve mental well-being. Learn how to choose a calming color palette, let your fabric scraps tell their own story, and create something beautiful without any pressure. This event will inspire you to unwind, be present, and experience the joy of “perfectly imperfect” creations.

    If you want to know how to bind anything with straight lines, watch Laura Nownes Block of the Month 2013. She saved me hours of frustration using her method.
