Workshop: Baskets of Wonder

Join Jill Shaulis and Vicki Olsen of Yellow Creek Quilt Designs for a journey into the wonderful world of wool applique. Wool is a great fiber for applique with its unique textures, weaves, and depth of color. If it’s felted, it doesn’t ravel, which makes edge finishing really easy and fun! If you haven’t tried wool applique before, here’s your chance. If you have, you probably can't wait to do another wool project. Come join us in making this lovely table runner.
