Reverse applique gives a unique, dimensional look to your quilted piece! The design is created in the background fabric peeking out of the top fabric. When you do it by machine, it takes no time at all.
Learn the quick and easy steps in Eye of the Beholder’s Trace, Snip, Iron and Stitch process to machine reverse applique, and get pointers on how to satin stitch like a pro. We will perfect our satin stitch techniques using the Practice Pattern first, learning tips for getting smooth curves and sharp inside and outside points, which will prepare you to create our block. See the beauty of the 8” Reverse Applique block, Bloom RA, for Spring Rains Medallion XVIII (32” x 32”) revealed as you stitch. Make it in Purple/blue, cream and multi-color as our original, Light Purple, cream and Bright Green as the remake or re- imagine it in your colors. Learn with others and experience the fun and beauty of reverse appliqué by hand. Kits to make the whole medallion are available.
If you want to learn a bit about this technique before the workshop, check out our Tutorials section on the website: Machine Reverse Appliqué Tutorial.
See below for downloadable Workshop preparation/materials list instructions. It’s essential that you pre-cut as there will not be time in the workshop to do this, so this will help us make best use of our time together. Guild members order the pattern and practice kit through guild for one price . There will also be a required practice kit available to purchase on the day ($5). All links open in a new window.
