Creating Graphic Imagery Full Day Workshop

blueladderdetail1

Adapt the graphic impact of woodcuts to quilt making. Your design begins with an original sketch which is used for pattern transfer to fused fabrics. Black fabric acts as a base for your design and the fused fabric shapes are arranged to make a bold, graphic image. Learn about free cutting, pattern transfer, and the design secrets of the woodcut quilt. (No sewing machine is needed.)
