Create Little Pictures with Valerie Nesbitt
Classes with Valerie Nesbitt • Educational, G, 01-Sep-2013
Montage
Picture panels come in varied sizes and lots of designs and it’s not always easy to turn them into a quilt. Valerie shows you how easy it is to create little pictures which can be grouped together into a montage.
Embellish
Don’t forget that you can add embellishments with stitching as well as glitz and these little panels are perfect for that.
You also get the opportunity to practice mitred corners on your binding which give such a professional finish to any project! If you not sure how to do mitred corners on your binding, click here for our video.
And on the background you could practice your free motion quilting.
So lots to do in just one little project!
