About This Workshop

Join fiber artist and educator Bianca Springer for a transformative 5-day garment-making experience centered around the Retazo Coat by Sew Liberated. This workshop celebrates creative confidence, storytelling through textiles, and the joy of making something bold and wearable.Whether you’re a seasoned sewist/quilter or just beginning your garment journey, you’ll be guided step-by-step through the construction of this versatile, artful coat. Students may begin with a pre-made quilt, quilt top or start from yardage – Bianca will meet you where you are and support your progress with clear instruction, celebration, and community.

Expect a week filled with laughter, breakthroughs, and goosebumps of pride as we explore:

– Pattern preparation and customization

– Garment construction techniques

– Creative embellishment and personal storytelling

– Sustainable practices and upcycling options

– Finishing details that elevate your coat from homemade to haute

By the end of the week, you’ll leave with a one-of-a-kind Retazo Coat, new friendships and a renewed sense of creative empowerment.
