Invisible Machine Applique



Learn many techniques for turning your appliqué elements that can then be stitched by machine or by hand.  These techniques make any appliqué method possible.  Find just the right technique for you.  You will also learn how to create perfect circles, bias stem elements to add to your appliqué designs and scalloped appliqué edge for your mitered border.  

Fabric
5/8 yard for the block backing.  For the class please choose a light fabric that you will be able to see a bold drawn line through.  I will explain methods for pattern transfer onto dark fabrics for future projects.  I recommend that you do not use solid fabrics.  

5-7 fat quarters of coordinating fabrics for your appliqué elements - I recommend that you do not use solid fabrics.

A 1/2 yard each is needed for the scallop and border, but we don't generally have time to actually do that on your project, but the teacher will do a demo as to how this is done.
