Ready to try something different? Create a “paper fabric” base (11 inches x 13 inches) on which to be creative with fused appliqué, machine stitching and hand stitching.  A very relaxed class ... with very few rules!  When complete, mount on a 14 inches x 16 inches canvas or stitch onto a quilted background.
