OCTOBER PROGRAM:

Collage Quilting with Emily Taylor

Emily Taylor is a self-taught artist, fabric designer, and quilter.  She has been a creative entrepreneur in the home dec and quilt industry for over 20 years. Her quilting life started in 2009 when she became a fabric designer for Riley Blake.

As an artist, Emily turned to collage as a way to blend quilting and art. To make it easy for us, she has developed unique patterns printed in shades of gray that allows a quilter to use a lot of different fabrics in a variation of patterns and values to create a collage. Her ‘parchment piecing’ technique is not difficult -- it uses small pieces of fabric to build a fusible design that can be added to a quilt, wall hanging, table runner, and more.

Emily asks that you fuse the Steam a Seam Lite to the wrong side of the small fabric pieces in the kit (but not the larger background fabric) prior to the workshop, so everyone is prepared to jump right in to creating their collage.
