OBJECTIVE OF 4 WORKSHOPS

You then drop these templates on the upside and you draw the perimeter.
You cut the tissue along these lines.
2 – Sewing
You must sew pieces of tissue in alternating patterns.
When all the parts are assembled, you get over the Top of your work.
3 – Assembly
You assemble the three parts of your work, the Top, the quilting middle and the back (or liner is a plain fabric slightly thicker).
On your table, place the back of your work , the quilting and then above, the Top.
You gather the three layers together by a temporary point.

The stitching lines have been drawn prior to assembly.
Quilting work plays a decorative role in giving the swelling in some parts of patchwork.
