About
Create a charming small wall quilt on a soft, neutral, hand-dyed wool background, adorned with nine indigo vases brimming with blooms. In this workshop, you’ll begin by embellishing each vase using hand-dyed indigo fabrics, threads, and beads. Then, bring each vase to life with textural stems and dimensional flowers.In this class, you will learn a variety of techniques like English Paper Piecing, ruching ribbons, ribbon flowers, perfect leaves and stems, fussy cutting, velvet embossing and appliqué, Dorset buttons, hexagon yo-yos, and of course... embroidery!
This workshop requires homework!
In advance of the workshop, you will be required to layer the background with with neutral fabrics and ribbons then appliqué the nine vases in place. You will bring this piece to class, ready to learn many techniques, filling each vase with textural stems, leaves, dimensional flowers and so much more!
