They then sandwiched this with wadding and backing covered it with a sheet of soluble film and machine stitched all over. When the film was washed out and the quilt dried it could be further stitched, beaded and bound. Lisa also taught hand dyeing of threads and small pieces of fabric which could be used in the landscapes or other projects. The ladies were enthusiastic and productive (top marks to Sarah) and Lisa again proved to be a very encouraging and attentive tutor.
We will be holding another of Lisa's workshops next year (19-20 November, 2012) - the very popular "Textured Treasures".

Oh these look lovely - it must have been great fun to 'play' with all those coloured pieces! One of the things I love so much about textiles - so tactile :)
I have never seen this done before - I love them all! Love your landscape pictures as well. It is always fun to see pictures of spring when our world is gearing up for winter!
