Thread Painting Class

The "Thread Painters" Carla, Rika, Nora and Linda

I taught a class that I call "Explore Thread Painting" at Hummingbird Sewing Center in Barrie this past Saturday and these ladies produced very nice work!

In the class, we were working with very small and fairly simple designs utilizing basic machine fusible appliqué and then exploring what it would look like to add some thread painted lines with decorative threads and threads to match the appliqués.  These ladies had all taken my free motion quilting class, so they were ready to give a more controlled technique a try and they excelled!!

This just in.... Nora sent me a pic of her finished quilt below, already thread painted, quilted and bound.  Not only did she get it done quick, she did a beautiful job!

Thanks for sharing Nora!

Nora's "Button Flowers"

If anyone else in the class gets their project completed, simply email it to me and I will be happy to share your work. Everyone's work is always inspiring to others!

This class is what I would consider a beginner/foundational thread painting class and I am working on an intermediate class right now - stay tuned to see the samples and class description for this class in the very near future ❤️

Want to take a thread painting class?, check out the details of my classes on my teaching page and have a look at the website for Hummingbird Sewing Center here or use my contact page to ask me where I may be teaching it in the near future.

Happy Monday everyone! We had a snow storm in Waterloo last evening and it is snowing right now, but I am optimistic that spring is right around the corner.

​Maybe the rest of the week will shine and let the flowers pop!☀️🌿🌸
