A full day workshop (which we split into 2-3hr. sessions) creating a quilt based on an architecture photo.   Do you have a favorite building you’d like to recreate?  We will be doing fused applique using a picture that has meaning to you. Rachel would like you to pick something that brings a smile to your face whether it be the barn you raised cows in or a pier you visited with your grandpa or a dock that housed your family boat. The class will work on how to create proper perspective and how to infuse some vibrant color into your buildings to create a beautiful masterpiece. Members: $ 35.00 Non-members: $ 40.00
