A Notan workshop by Dorothy Russell

This is always a very popular workshop, back by request. During this workshop you will make your own design (it’s not at all scary, even if you think you can’t draw!!!). You will transfer it to an applique fabric and bondaweb it onto a background fabric. It really is fun.

 

Appropriate for all ability levels.


Machine Quilting with Trapunto.

Two day workshop:
Sunday 5th May and Sunday 12th May 2019. 10:00 – 16:00.
£65.00

Image follows

If you have done a machine quilting workshop with me before, this one is very different. You will be using dissolving thread and an extra layer of wadding to give the same effect as trapunto. During the first session you will transfer the design, stitch and trim the trapunto areas. You have a week between workshops, if necessary, to complete this stage. During the second session, you will layer and machine quilt your piece.

 

Appropriate for all ability levels, but you will need a sewing machine with a feed-dog which drops – and please make sure you know your machine before the workshop.

Sunday 26th May 2019. 10:00 – 16:00.
£35.00

Quilt Lettering Workshop by Dorothy Russell
