Landscapes are always popular, and simple landscapes even more so. In this workshop, students will work on a small landscape – approximately 15″ x 24″ to learn the technique of cutting simple curves without marking and sewing them without pinning!
This is a 5-hour workshop, divided into two sessions with a week in-between to allow students to complete the work.
In Session I – April 22nd from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. – students will learn to sew the landscape and apply the design. Several methods of transferring the design to the fabric will be demonstrated. The landscape will be free-motion quilted in its entirety before the design is painted. Free-motion quilting techniques and designs that are relevant to landscapes will be demonstrated.
In Session II – April 29th from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 am. – paint will be added to the design. Shading and highlighting will be demonstrated. There will be a discussion on beading and hand embroidery to finish your landscape.
