Wool Applique

​Rachel Cody

3 hrs
1 pm - 4 pm
All levels
$40
​
This class is open to all skill levels. No homework or supplies required from students unless they have their own fiber or embellishments they wish to incorporate. I will have a kit prepared to complete a pin cushion jar and needle wallet. Or you can take creative liberties and make a coaster or trivet instead. I will highlight all the reasons wool is the best for applique and show you the most common embroidery stitches to make some amazing pieces. This method is versatile, as once you have the basics you can build on it and make table runners, earrings, quilt blocks, brooches, etc. Your mind is your only limit.
