Painted Block Workshop
3 hour workshop
Using paintstiks, stamps, and fusible web, learn Laura Murray's "Stackers" technique, which uses layered squares and triangles to create the appearance of intricate detail in traditional quilting block designs. Sewing is not required because the blocks are assembled on a base fabric using fusible web. The Stackers technique is fun, easy to learn and produces amazing results.
