First up is something you have already seen this week in my new Blog Header:

Due to popular demand, I will be running an Applique skills class, where we will be learning 4 main types of applique.
1. Satin Stitch (machine applique - as shown in the Love cushion above)
2. Free Motion Sketching (machine applique - see below)

3. Needleturn (hand applique):

4. Reverse Needleturn (hand applique)

The class will be mainly techniques based with the option of making 1 cushion.

The cushion borders have been mitred at the corners, which is another technique I've been waiting to teach. I used recycled denim for my borders, and I think the mitred corners help to frame the applique pictures.

Applique is a lot of fun when you find a technique and style that works for you. The creative possibilities are endless!

ReplyDeleteI wish I could come and learn satin stitch applique. Would be so useful and I've never managed to do it on my machine. Probably because I am not using the right settings or something.
ReplyDeleteThose are so cute and the shapes are smooth and bubbly enough that they would be achievable for anyone new to appliqué.
ReplyDeleteThe classes are going to be fully booked within minutes!! The cushions are fabulous, I particularly love the 'quilts on the line' one!
ReplyDeleteReally looking forward to this class. So glad I booked early.
