About the Master Class

In this master class, Machine Reverse Applique is FAST and FUN!, Margaret will de-mystify with her expert knowledge and skill, helping attendees find the FUN and EASE of machine reverse applique done the Eye of the Beholder way. They will see step-by-step demos of Eye of the Beholder’s Trace, Snip, Iron & Stitch process for machine reverse applique, and get pointers on how to satin stitch like a pro. Attendees will also learn and see satin stitch techniques to stitch sharp outside points without “x-es”, crisp corners and smooth curves with no gaps.

Margaret will demonstrate using the Snowflake A block from Eye of the Beholder’s Twinkling Flurries Quilt pattern and Fleur de Lis pattern.
