Enjoy an hour creating mixed-media floral quilts with a variety of trims, silks, velvets, wools, laces, and specialty yarns. To dress up the flowers we will learn how to use Angelina Fibers, tulle, Shiva Paintstiks, Lumiere metallic paints and Jacquard Antique Gold powder. This is a wonderful way to have fun with all your fibers, including antique ones, which you have hidden away in your drawers.
Approximate running time 50 minutes.
