April 30, 2010

Garden Medley

You will receive the pattern to complete this 3-panel wall quilt, but in class we will work on the center panel. While hand sewing on this panel you will learn how to achieve smooth curves, wonderful points and perfect circles. Karen will teach you her fun and easy tips to make your hand appliqué look great. Some sewing machines will be needed for this workshop for stem work, but a couple of machines will be provided in class so you do not need to bring yours.
