Learn how to make appliquéd circles, while also having a great time. In the first part of the workshop, students will learn five (or more!) techniques to help them achieve the perfect circle even if they have never made one before. Both hand and machine sewing techniques will be covered. Using the circle blocks that students make during the week will be used to play on the design wall with discussion on how to make your very own circle quilts. While this is a technique class, it is also includes a through discussion of color theory and practical design. By the end of the workshop, students will know how to make an appliqué circle that is round, rather than wonky, and they will be well on their way to making a circle quilt that is unique to each participant. The workshop is beginner friendly. Students should have basic quilting skills such as an ability to sew blocks together with 1/4″ seam and know how to use their sewing machine. Come prepared to play, experiment, and have fun.
