It’s about time to sign up for classes at The Academy of Applique for 2024!  Once again I’m so honored to be teaching at this special event!  If you enjoy handwork, good food, good conversation, learning new thing about handwork and making friends….the Academy is for you!   

These are my projects for next year- Dancing Blooms...

And Circle of Love ❤️ 

The class will focus on Starch Basting (prepared edge) shapes for precision placement and fast sewing (even by machine if desired). You’ll also learn 1/8” stems, sharp points and tiny 3/16” hexies (Yes, that’s right!) with ease. These pieces are small but you can talk to Missie about making your block larger if you prefer. We will also discuss how to use border prints with this project. Both classes Missie is teaching in 2024 coordinate together in one quilt. Alternate the blocks to make a large quilt, use the block from this class alone as a center medallion for a quilt, repeat as a stunning quilt, or alone as a small wall hanging. You will leave class inspired to complete this project the way you desire!  I had so much fun creating these blocks.  I love sharing the Joy of Applique' and hope you will consider joining me for a few days of fun!
