These lovely folk art butterflies are collaged from a variety of prints making each one unique. They are fun to assemble, the possibilities are endless, and they go together quickly as the appliqué is fused. In this class, you will collage one or more butterflies creating pre-fused butterfly patches that can be added to garments, tote bags, quilts, or any type of textile art.
This loose and liberating process involves finding interesting and unique fabric print details that can be fussy cut and combined to make wonderful, whimsical things with wings. This will be fusing only, no sewing machine needed for the class.
Skill Level: confident beginner and up
