Lucy Engels - Sunday 28 March 2021 - 4.00pm to 7.00pm (BST)

Online Interactive Workshop: Modern Appliqué Techniques 

Rejoining us after her inaugural Triple Inset Circles class in February, talented Scot Lucy Engels is another hugely welcome addition to the CraftyMonkies talent-stable! A veritable guru of modern quilting, in this workshop Lucy teaches you some invaluable Modern Appliqué Techniques to really help give your designs some 'zing'!

​

Introduction by Lucy:-

Over the past year I've been doing a lot of appliqué - by hand and machine - and found that firstly, many of you are a bit intimidated with the process and also that we all seem to approach it a bit differently. After testing out my preferred ways and learning many tips and tricks from others, I thought it would be useful to put together a class where you can test out different appliqué methods.  Demystifying the process and finding the appliqué method that works best for you so you can go on to tackle those appliqué projects you have always wanted to make but have not been confident enough to do!
