tile
quilt revival
applique advanced beginner
Traditional tile quilts are a unique and somewhat obscure form of
applique. The quilts are constructed with small pieces of cotton
fabric appliquéed in a random manner to a white background,
leaving a narrow space between the pieces which serves as the
“grout” between the tiles. Join Becky to explore this intriguing
form of applique.
Class fee: $25.00
