Adult Basic Needle Turn Applique
This is a beginning applique class to learn the needle turn applique technique. You will learn how to start your Applique Project using freezer paper to draw each pattern piece and mark your turn/stitch line. You will also learn how to do inside and outside curves and points. We will discuss the use of an overlay for piece placement, type of needles, and type of thread to use for best results. I will have several example pieces to show the class, including a demonstration of the overlay process. This needle-turn technique class is perfect for all levels of applique sewers including beginners.
MATERIALS NEEDED FOR CLASS:
2 to 3 fat quarters of bright/print fabric
1 fat quarter for background
