Kristie Naranjo
Scrappy Applique

In this workshop, you will learn the Scrappy Appliqué technique in a fun, engaging environment where everyone will learn the skills to confidently turn any template into an original design. This one-of-a-kind technique allows each person to reflect their own personality in their project by the choices made in colors, fabrics, shapes and finishing. Each person will choose any small or medium sized Scrappy Applique pattern template (there are over 150 of them) and then using your own fabric scraps (or precuts or yardage) learn the steps in a creative way to make a one-of-a-kind project.  The entire process is broken into highly detailed steps including fabric selection, fusing, cutting, collaging, and finishing options. Throughout the workshop you will learn insider tips, tricks and techniques to make the process quick, easy and fun. Pattern templates and supplies are available at kristienaranjo.com/shop
