Collage Quilt - Aug 13

 Aug 13 -  9:30AM-12:30PM

Want to make a small “quilt” without the need to be accurate in cutting pieces and sewing a quarter seam?  Collage quilts are a way to use fabric to make a beautiful piece but not having to use rulers and sewing precise seams.  You chose fabric of various styles and cut them into pieces to place on a picture to fill it in.  Just like you did as a kid when you cut up pictures and glued them on poster board.  The end result is one of a kind and will never look the same no matter how many times you make the design.  It is a way to use some scraps of fabric to create a unique quilt.  Once you have your collage the way you want it, it will be fused to the background fabric, sandwiched, and then stitched before binding.

Supplies needed:

• Scrapes of fabric of various styles/designs
• Cloth/paper scissors
• One 15x15” piece of fabric for the background
• One 18x18” piece of fabric for the back
• Fabric for Binding - 2 strips 2 ½ inches width of frabric
• Fabric Glue/Spray - your preference
• Pencil

Included in the cost of the class:

• Pattern 
• 1 piece of Pattern Ease
• 1 piece of Steam A Seam
• 1 piece of Batting
