Create a little house quilt and receive a degree in Architecture from the Chicago School of Fusing at the same time!
In this workshop we explore the many techniques of fusing: free cutting, layering, collage building, improvisational design, and more. The result is a whimsical neighborhood placed in a colorful landscape setting and made from a kit of pre-fused beautifully hand-dyed fabrics.
(No sewing machine is needed.)
