| JULY 18 AMI SIMMS THE OLD ORDER AMISH |
| Thursday, July 18—Invisible Applique with Ami Simms . The workshop will be immediately after the day meeting from 12:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. The cost of the workshop is $45. Please bring a sack lunch so that we can start promptly at noon. Workshop Description from Ami: Explore a new way to appliqué where the thread is nearly invisible. Learn by sewing with butt- ugly thread. We won't be making anything pretty in class, but by the time we're done, you'll want to run right out and start a king-size Rose of Sharon. Students will focus on the stitch itself, sewing straight lines and then curves. If time permits, demonstrations of points and V-shapes will be shown. This is a technique workshop, not a project workshop. Ami will provide a kit with all you need to get started with hand applique. See the workshop information page on the website for full details. Please sign up at the meeting or contact me at 281-575-7726 or juliedayton@sbcglobal.net. |
