About the Workshop
In my Hearts workshop, you’ll learn the ins and outs of this beautiful technique. I chose this project, because it’s the perfect place to start. Appliqué is all about shape, and with Hearts we’ll tackle all of the basics. What you learn in this project will help you know how to conquer other shapes and projects too.
This workshop is over 2-1/2 hours, and we cover a lot. From the design, to planning your project, to talking about fabric and how to pick your background. We go over supplies, preparation, cutting and laying out your project. We dive deep into the technique, addressing all of the shape variation at play. We will also add our border and do the quilting. It’s all here. Everything is time stamped and broken into chapters that you can revisit time and time again.
