Bars, Beads and Drizzle
September 6, 2024 at 5:00:00 PM
Use your machine’s zigzag stitch to create satin stitch bars, beads and drizzle. See how effective the drizzle technique lends itself to appliquéing sheer fabrics that are otherwise difficult to handle. Drizzle stitching creates strong texture across fabric and can be painted for another effect. Students will work with stars, hearts, and/or circles cut with AccuQuilt templates provided by the instructor. Plus bonus topic of making your own cord!
