Required Supplies: - Three (3) 18in x 18in square fabrics with your choice of colors - One (1) 17in x 17in square freezer paper (such as Reynolds KITCHENS Plastic Coated Freezer Paper) - Universal scissors (Make sure that they are under 4” from the pivot point if you will be traveling by air) - shared scissors will be provided but you may wish to have your own to maximize class time - Fabric glue for temporary basting, such as Roxanne Glue Baste or your preferred glue. It will be helpful to have an applicator which allows controlled placement of droplets of glue. (Make sure that it is 3.4 ounces/100 milliliters or less per item if you will be traveling by air) - A sewing needle or pin - Six (6) or Eight (8) paper clips
Optional Supplies: - Thread – One (1) spool of thread with your choice of color for topstitching. (Note: The threads will be set up in the sewing machine in the classroom in advance; however, the color choice may vary.) - Additional One (1) Fat Quarter (approximately 18in x 21in) as a backup in case of miscutting. - Additional one (1) 17in x 17in square freezer paper as a backup in case of miscutting.
Prep Requirements: Use spray starch and iron all your fabrics before cutting. It helps minimize the shrinkage of the fabric during the process.
Take your Reverse Applique to the next level in this workshop! While creating numerous circles may seem simple, this project is ideal for intermediate participants due to its intricacy. Students will utilize freezer paper and printed circle templates to cut out various sizes of circles. Students will learn how to use the freezer paper and starch to neatly fold the appliqué seam in place for different sizes of circles, followed by glue basting and sewing the appliqué in place with top stitching using a sewing machine. Satomi will guide you through each step, demonstrating the techniques involved! Sewing machines generously provided by event sponsors!
