As a self-professed “junker,” I have a very hard time passing up unfinished handmade projects when I see them. A few years ago I came across a stack of Quilt Blocks that were never made into a quilt. They were beautifully tattered and worn, and my heart wondered about the hands that crafted them.
Inspiration struck and I stenciled on one and then stitched it. I. Love. It. and I want to share my process with you, too.
I’ll show you how to stencil on fabric, talk about color choices, demonstrate a number of embroidery stitches and walk you through how I like to embellish at the end of my projects.
I’m extending this class over three sessions because there is a lot to explore and add as you create & stitch! We’ll meet on 3 Tuesdays starting July 10th from 10:30 am – 12:30 pm.
Your quilt block and backing fabric are supplied for this class. We’ll also have a box of goodies of tattered lace, old sewing notions, buttons, etc. for you to incorporate into your piece. You will need to provide floss, thread, a hoop, needles, & scissors as well as any 3-D elements you’d like to use. Of course, we have tons of these things in the Studio, as well for purchase.
The minimum age to participate is 14. Minimum needed to make this class is 4; maximum is 12.
