The Magic of Thread Painting
I had a wonderfully busy day on Saturday at Quilt Canada 2025 with two sold-out workshops.
Students learned:
The principles of using a photo editing program to simplify a photo that can be used to make a line drawing or appliqué pattern.
How to make a base image for thread painting with fusible appliqué.
Basic thread painting with a straight stitch, side motion zig zag, free motion satin stitch, slanted satin stitch, and open zig zag.
How to use a variety of different types and weights of thread.
Correct hand and body positioning and more.
It’s fabulous to see everyone just have fun and let the creativity flow!
Thanks to Husqvarna VIKING Canada for providing the wonderful TOPAZ 50 sewing and embroidery machines for my classroom.
Thank you to WonderFil Specialty Threads for making the custome thread kits for this workshop.
