Intro to Needle Turn Appliqué

gather here Classes

Needle Turn Appliqué is a traditional way of sewing fabric shapes onto a foundation, turning under the raw edges as you sew. Laura has designed the "Organic Fruits" Needle Turn Appliqué workshop to help you learn how to sew all kinds of organic shapes using just needle and thread--no special equipment needed. We'll use some templates for your choice of fruit or vegetable design (or draw your own!) and practice curves and points.

Limited to 4 students (16 yrs of age or older); 2 students are required for class to meet. If a class is cancelled due to low enrollment, you will receive a full refund.
