Moments Curved Piecing Workshop
This workshop is based on the techniques used to make her art piece “Moments” which appeared in Quilting Arts Magazine.
Day 1: Students will work on their own piece to be finished at 17” x 24” approximately. The focus of the first day will be to design the piece based on a favorite object of inspiration (a photo, a leaf, shell, feather, piece of wood, cup, etc.). Once the design has been finalized, the piecing technique will be demonstrated.
Day 2: Continue working on piecing the top. Quilting techniques will be shown, as well as thread painting and embellishment: Paintstiks, Angelina fibers, tulle, stencils, fabric paint, stamps, splattering, beading, etc.
