Patti D Americana Pillow Class at Be Sew Bizzy
There is something special about a project that feels both handmade and meaningful. Patti D’s Americana Pillow class at Be Sew Bizzy is exactly that kind of project.
In this two-part class, Patti Dubreuil will guide students through her America 250 themed pillow design, a patriotic project created in honor of America’s 250th anniversary in 2026. With classic red, white, and blue style, layered fabric detail, and Patti’s signature creative approach, this pillow is a beautiful way to celebrate the season and make something you will actually want to display.
Patti D is known for her original designs, hands-on teaching style, and ability to help students feel confident as they work through a project. She has taught bags, pillows, quilts, tuffets, and collage-style projects throughout Southern California, and she brings a relaxed, encouraging energy to class. You do not have to be perfect. You just need to show up ready to sew, learn, and have fun.
The Americana Pillow class is a two-day class, giving students time to work through the project step by step instead of feeling rushed. That makes it a great fit for anyone who enjoys guided sewing time, wants help with fabric placement and construction, or simply likes the fun of working on a creative project in a room full of other makers.
This project is especially timely because 2026 marks the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Whether you decorate for Memorial Day, Flag Day, the Fourth of July, Veterans Day, or just love Americana style, this pillow is the kind of handmade piece that can come out year after year.
Class will be held at Be Sew Bizzy in Los Alamitos, your local sewing, embroidery, quilting, Kimberbell, and PFAFF destination. Be Sew Bizzy is all about helping customers feel comfortable using their machines and building skills in a friendly, non-intimidating environment. Patti’s class fits right into that spirit.
Bring your machine, your supplies, and your love of red, white, and blue. Patti will help guide the rest.
