Join us in Seattle for a hands-on sewing workshop where you’ll learn how to make your very own decorative rope bowl! In this class, your instructor, Rosalie Gale, will guide you step-by-step through the process of turning plain rope into a one-of-a-kind bowl or trivet. We will explore wrapping the rope with scrap fabric and experiment with different stitching and wrapping techniques.

This class will take place in the Tashiro Kaplan building in Pioneer Square. Please make sure you're not heading to our retail shop. This is a different location. If you google Ugly Baby Workshop Space, it will give you the address of our studio - which is in the same building - but is not the most convenient door for you to enter from.
