Pieced Appliqué™ taught by Penny Haren
This class does require the purchase of a kit that will be available at Quilting by the Bay. More details coming soon.
For more than 20 years, as a quilter and several years as a shop owner, Ohio-based Penny Haren has been developing and teaching techniques that make it quick, easy and fun for quilters —even beginners—to create intricate blocks with stunning results. Her technique, Pieced Appliqué™, eliminates y-seams; inset points and curves from even the most complicated blocks. Quilts and blocks that you might never have considered are now not only possible but a breeze.
