Virginia Bouquet

Virginia Bluebells, Dogwoods and wonderful red cardinal fill the elegant woven basket designed especially for Academy students. The focus for this class is careful prep work for perfect appliqué results; the class is designed for all skill levels and will introduce you to new techniques. Learn Pearl’s prepared edge freezer paper appliqué techniques and build your appliqué directly on the pattern. We’ll also learn how to make any size “Perfect Bias Stems”, sharp points, perfect circles, smooth concave and convex shapes.
