Overview

Discover the art of appliqué, a simple and satisfying hand sewing technique in which small pieces of fabric are stitched onto a larger background to create decorative designs. In this welcoming introductory workshop, you’ll learn how to cut fabric shapes and secure them with a few essential hand stitches, layering motifs to build pattern, texture, and color. Through guided demonstrations and practice, you’ll create a small patchwork sample that can later be used to embellish clothing, personalize accessories, or add character to well-loved garments. Designed for beginners and anyone curious about working with fabric by hand, this class invites you to slow down and enjoy the tactile rhythm of stitching. All supplies are provided, and you’ll leave with both a finished piece and the confidence to continue exploring appliqué on your own.
