Christine Fries-Ureel

“The Art of Making an Appealing Nature Scene"

Skill Level: Intermediate/Advanced

Workshop Dates: March 27, 28 & 29th

Workshop Fee: $275

  Learn to create 3-D leaves, some from fabric, others from thread, by sewing layers of stitching linked together.  You'll be surprised at how you can create beautiful realistic-looking leaves!  You'll also fashion 3-D butterflies using fabric, thread-painting, and beads.  Explore how to make realistic trees with trunks and branches using fabric and quilting lines to represent bark textures, contours, and shadowing.  Learn the technique used for Miranda's hair in my quilt, "Miranda: The Tempest," by employing free-motion embroidery on water-soluble stabilizer to craft a little creature.  You'll create a cozy place for it complete with attractive mushrooms, a corner with pond water and a lurking spider and web.  We'll emphasize attention to details which play a major role in quilts.  You’ll look at new ways of choosing colors and threads to enhance the beauty of your quilts.  Everyone will create her own personal little nature scene!  (Details and examples at www.loveabideth.com -- click on “Classes.”)
