Brighten up your day with this whimsical three-dimensional wall hanging. Monique will cover some basic fusible applique tips and techniques, stitching and quilting ideas and explore the option of adding a third dimension to your projects using Terial Magic™. Brighten up your wall with this wall hanging and learn how easy it is to include 3-D petals in your quilted wall art as you create your own garden of fabric flowers! Kits are available in a variety of colors.




  • Student Maximum: 100
  • Category(ies): Rookies and Refreshers, Fiber and Needle Arts, Just for Fun, Gift Items, Embellishment, Appliqué, Stretch Your Creativity
  • Experience Level: All welcome
  • Advance Prep: If you are comfortable doing so, piece your background together per the pattern instructions prior to class. In order to build your flower and be ready for stitching, students can also trace and label your pattern pieces on fusible web, fuse to the corresponding fabric color, cut out and organize your pieces for your flowers and stems prior to class. If you are new to applique, don’t feel comfortable doing this step on your own, and/or cannot achieve this by day of class, I will cover these steps at the top of class and you can do this work during class instead. Note that you will most likely not be able to build your flower in preparation for stitching during the live class. But you will be able to follow the instructions upon re-watching. Students should have a large enough pressing station with their pressing sheet, and a hot iron for fusing pieces. Students wishing to work on stitching/quilting during class should have their machine in an area where they can view class and listen to instruction as they work. As always, I'm happy to answer any questions prior to class regarding prep work. You can contact me at info@ladybugscabin.com
