Hand Applique Workshop

On Saturday, 11 WQC members gathered at Kelston to learn needleturn applique
with one of our own members, Tracey Roberts.  
What a great day it was with Tracey sharing her vast knowledge on fabric, threads,
scissors and needles as well as teaching us the skills to do great
needle turn applique using freezer paper templates on the right side of the fabric.
Tracey is an excellent tutor and made sure we were all keeping up
and so good at sharing her skills as well as helping out with
needle threading and other the other problems we had.

I know I really enjoyed the day and went home
with the skills to complete one of my flowers.
Thankyou Tracey for a wonderful class.  I know I learnt a lot.
Thanks to Elizabeth for being gofer and keeping us well fed
and thank you to all the ladies who attended and brought lots of yummy food.
It was very relaxing day doing needle work with like minded people.
