Stained-Glass Iris Quilt

Description Combining multiple piecing techniques together into one project can yield a truly stunning result. You’ll use traditional piecing, paper piecing, templates and appliqué to create this stained-glass iris quilt, and finish by outlining each piece of your appliqué design with thin bias tape to create the look of a stained-glass panel. This quilt uses multiple construction techniques including traditional piecing, paper piecing, templates, and appliqué. You will also learn how to create the illusion of stained glass by outlining the appliqué pieces with thin, fusible bias tape. Your instructor, quilt designer Ashley Hough, will break down the construction of this quilt step-by-step, beginning with simple cutting and piecing before moving on to more challenging aspects like the iris appliqué. This class will provide you with a great opportunity to improve your skills in all areas of piecing and even try out some fun new techniques.
