We are so happy to welcome Janet back to Cowslip. She has published many lovely books and designed gorgeous fabric collections for Moda. This workshop is a good introduction to the techniques Janet uses to achieve her appliqué and quilting style. She teaches through a series of fun group exercises in the morning and then in the afternoon everyone is free to create their own appliqué blocks or pictures with her help. She’ll help people design their own pictures and can draw any templates required (well, she’ll have a good try!). Come along to this fun workshop and learn how to transform and personalise your appliqué with Janet’s quick and simple method. Honestly, no real life drawing skills are required!
