QU 2019 – Saturday and Sunday July 27 & 28 – Scrappy Applique – Shannon Brinkley
Class description:
This class is perfect for beginner quilters as well as more advanced students interested in learning this raw-edge applique technique. Students will learn Shannon Brinkley’s simple and fun raw-edge applique technique, basic quilting techniques, and basic free motion quilting. Students will take away the finished or nearly finished quilt top! Students will be able to choose from a variety of templates (purchased the day of the workshop from Shannon, or ordered/downloaded and printed beforehand from her website, shannon-brinkley.com). Students will have a blast choosing beautiful fabric that, once collaged together, will create a really striking and modern look.
