Making Quilted Fabric Bowls

Description This class features a fun and easy way to make quilted bowls in a variety of shapes and sizes using all your favorite fabrics and easy machine quilting. You’ll want to make tons for yourself and even more to give away as gifts. This is a fun project for any skill level! Using heavy stabilizer, some batting and fabric scraps, you can create your own one-of-a-kind round, square or oval vessel. Instructor Heather Thomas will review how to layer the base of the bowl and the process of measuring and cutting the wedges that will be used to form the bowl. Once that is complete, she will go over a variety of ways to add decorative fabric layers. You can quilt the fabric bowl with simple or complex designs. Heather will show how to manipulate the bowl under the foot of your machine for the best quilting results. Finally she will demonstrate how to embellish your bowl with decorative edges, from couched fibers to hand beading.
