  Scrappy Appliqué

  Utilize your leftover fabric scraps, precuts, or any of your favorite fabrics to create a one of kind project.
  

  Scrappy Appliqué is a raw edge applique technique where you collage scrap fabrics to create your applique piece. This method was developed by Shannon Brinkley, an international speaker, author and designer.

  The process is quick, fun, simple to pick up, and every level of quilter will enjoy it whether a beginner or advanced. 

  Workshops teach the Scrappy Appliqué method in a fun, engaging environment where everyone will learn the skills to confidently turn any template into an original design.

  This one of a kind technique allows each person to reflect their own personality in their project by the choices made in colors, fabrics, shapes and finishing.

  There are over 300 patterns from which you may choose on Kristie's website: https://www.kristienaranjo.com/shop It is best to choose a smaller pattern for the workshop. There are only 2 patterns (Amaya, the zebra and Sasha, the tiger) which would be too large to finish in our workshop. Patterns are available for immediate download when purchased online and will fit over 2 sheets of paper. Popular patterns may also be purchased for $8 from Kristie at the general meeting in October.
  

  It is not necessary to bring your sewing machine to the workshop. Most students don't get to the sewing step during the class.

  So you've made a dynamite quilt, but you're not sure if you need to add a border, and if so, what it should look like.  This month's meeting is for you!  

  Join us to hear Sandy Corbin and her program, "Let's Talk About Borders." In her lecture Sandy will discuss the impact a border can make on your quilt.  You'll learn to determine whether your quilt needs a border, the different styles of borders, and how to size your border to fit any quilt.
