Advanced Snowflake - Diane Fama
This is an advanced level applique class.Remember folding paper several times as a kid and then cutting it
out into Snowflakes? This same technique is used for Hawaiian Snow Flakes to be appliquéd to a
background in one of several techniques. We’ll explore the right way to fold and cut the freezer paper to
make a perfect snow flake appliqué unit. We’ll discuss and perform invisible machine appliqué methods
during class to be used to put your snowflake onto the background fabric. Students should be able to
complete one snowflake block during class. These can be made into a single flake wall hanging, pillow, or
be used as the first of several blocks to be made into a table runner or wall hanging. This is a great winter
stay inside project for you to try while its cold outside.
