Kit Fee $25.00
Skill Level: All Levels
Description: This workshop will teach you most aspects of applique – needleturn, prepared edge, straight line, template, curves, points on leaves and stems. You will learn how to prepare your shapes and glue them onto the background fabric using a lightbox (essential for my class). Using this process eliminates all those extra steps that we used to do once upon a time – and NO pins on your work.
