English Paper Piecing and Applique



English Paper Piecing and Applique
Teacher: Dawn Davis
Learn a centuries old hand sewing technique with a modern twist. Create precise shapes when you learn the English Paper Piecing (EPP) quilting technique, where fabric is wrapped around paper pieces. The design possibilities are endless because the shapes align beautifully. Dawn will show you how to piece a hexagon (hexies) shape, but the same principles apply when you work with diamonds and other shapes. She’ll show you how to choose your materials and tools, create the hexagons, and then appliqué them onto a canvas tote bag.

You will also Learn how to:
Use three ways to baste your fabric
Use paper piecing templates
Use pattern and layout ideas
Use different methods of marking fabric
Choose your thread
