Description
Alice Wilhoit delivers a great value in this class as she teaches needle-turn, cut-away, back basting, and reverse appliqué so you can make the beautiful flowers in this Lily’s Flowers pattern bloom just as beautiful as on the original quilt.
You’ll learn English paper piecing, over a dozen embroidery stitches plus endless combinations, French and colonial knots, beading, silk ribbon embroidery, and how to use dainty vintage handkerchiefs on your crazy quilt.
Crazy patchwork is a traditional art form that adds appealing asymmetry to the finished quilt but also gives you freedom as you stitch. So gather your lace, beautiful threads, luscious fabrics, and enjoy the fun of crazy patchwork. As Alice says throughout the class, “Most importantly, there are no rules! You just create, create, create!”
For your convenience, this class can be purchased for online viewing or purchased on DVD.

As a beginner applique enthusiast and someone who knows only one embroidery stitch, this class is rewarding and encouraging! Alice is an excellent teacher; information is clear and given in a non-complicated, non-threatening, inviting way. She makes me want to master the stitching and explore my own creativity with Crazy Patch foundations. I could (and will!) watch this series over and over and feel like she is right in the room with me, helping me every step of the way. I am inspired and motivated. Thank you, Alice!!

Alice is an excellent teacher. I learned so much from tips, on applique, silk ribbon, embroidery, beading and embellishing the flowers. What a wonderful idea to be creative in your own quilt. The quilt is so lovely and an heirloom to be handed down. I smile when I see her finished flower quilt. Beautiful. I have started collecting the neutral color fabrics for the patch.
Alice, thank you for teaching us your flower quilt. I have enjoyed the courses. Looking forward to your next project on video.
