This is my Tessellated Heart Bag Zoom Workshop. The inspiration behind it is a heart cut gemstone. After studying gemstones for some time, I was able to come up with a pattern for this bag. It went viral on the internet when I shared my design process. It's a mix of creative techniques that make this a unique bag that will certainly grab people's attention when you wear it.

 Now here's something really important. This is a three-hour class: to complete a bag in that time alongside learning the design process I'm going to teach you would be very difficult, too rushed. So what I'm going to do is show you how to create the 3D heart shape during this Zoom workshop. I will then talk you through how this can be used to make the bag or to use it as a piece of wall art. Don't worry, the full downloadable PDF instructions will detail everything you need to know to make it into a bag (in essence creating a back panel with a zip and attaching it to your piece we will have made in class. You can then add a strap.) The bag-making is quite a simple process, the more difficult process is what I'm going to teach you in the class, the front of the bag! But, as I just mentioned, you may want to use this as a piece of wall-art by simply sewing a panel onto the back of the piece we're making. The options on how you want to finish it are endless, the main thing is to make the front piece with me!

 In this workshop I will teach you how to:

• Making a three-dimensional design

• Freezer Paper Foundation Paper Piecing

• Work with iron-on foam stabiliser

• Quilt-as-you-go
