Projects and Workshops
Daisy Chain Placemat and Napkin
You will love creating this wonderful placemat and napkin project using Tsukineko Inks. The results are simple and elegant, but wait until you see how it comes alive when it is free-motion embroidered with luscious Sulky Blendables threads. Even if you aren't artistic, you will find this to be a fun project. These inks are so much easier to use and control than fabric paints, and the hand of the fabric stays the same. Based on our book - Fun with Sulky Blendables. - 1 day workshop - Combines Tsukeneko Inks and free-motion embroidery - Great for beginners |
Supplies (click here)
Bring your sewing machine and basic sewing supplies. Other materials required (stabilizer, thread, paint) will be provided and are included in the cost of the workshop. Contact Elizabeth Crowley to sign up. |

The quilt has 2 different 12” blocks.
Use any fabrics you want (Batik, 30’s reproduction, Civil War, solid, etc.). Click here for cutting instructions. Please have your cutting done in advance of the workshop.
