EMBELLISHMENT EXTRAVAGANZA


I have great news! For all of you who love embellishment as much as I do, I am leading a five day workshop March 2010 at Quilting Adventures in Texas. Make plans to embellish with me now!

Love embellishments, but don’t know where to start? Then this embellishment workshop is for you!

I love embellishments, especially ‘all things shiny’ and uses them expertly in my work. Learn techniques in a relaxed, hands-on workshop. I will guide you in the creative use of beads, fabric, foil, paintstiks, buttons, threads and embroidery to fashion your own special quilt.

You will also learn an easy way to form a bow, create texture with ribbons, plus construct folded ribbon roses.

This workshop is like having a week of private lessons from a Master Embellisher! Once you learn the techniques, you will be able to create your own embellished ‘masterpieces’ on any textiles from quilts to wall hangings and garments.

There will be plenty of time to work on small projects. You will be surprised at how quick and easy the smaller ‘Eye Candy’ and ‘Bead Candy’ quilts are to make. As your creativity flows, you will be dazzled by the results!
