Folk Art Paper Quilts Workshop with Heather LeCompte

Come celebrate autumn by making a folk art-inspired paper quilt with rich seasonal colors, layered textures, and handmade details. With hand-painted papers, collage materials, simple stitching, and painted touches, you’ll create a unique quilt-style mixed-media artwork that captures the warmth and playful spirit of the harvest season.Inspired by the intersection of expressive arts, folk art, and quilting, you’ll put your piece together one small block at a time, mixing patterns and autumn symbols like leaves, birds, pumpkins, hearts, and stars. Throughout the workshop, you’ll get gentle prompts to help you slow down, connect with the season, and think about gratitude, resilience, comfort, and abundance. There’s no right or wrong way to make your art. Just trust your intuition, enjoy the process, and see what happens.

You don’t need any art experience to join. If you love autumn colors, folk art, or just enjoy making things by hand, this workshop is for you. It’s a relaxed, welcoming space where you can embrace imperfection, nurture your creativity, and see how many small pieces can come together to make something beautiful, just like the stories we collect through the seasons.This workshop welcomes both beginners and experienced artists. All materials are included. Ages 14+
