Appliquéing is a craft technique in which patches of different fabrics are arranged on a background of fabric, then secured with small stitches. In this workshop, you will sit at a table full of colourful patches and threads with which you will create your own appliqué work. What about your personal initials on a garment, or immortalising a self-made image on fabric?
