We 3 Sheep…

About this event

A wool appliqué workshop with Sue Maddox We 3 Sheep is a one day wool appliqué workshop, suitable for those with previous experience or for confident stitchers. Wool appliqué using freezer paper, is an easy technique to learn & it is always fun to play with the beautiful colours of over dyed wools available from Cowslip. This wool piece follows a Christmas theme, but could so easily be adapted to suit any season. It could become a wall hanging, table runner or simply be laid over a box or across a chair back. You are welcome to make yours exactly like mine or take ideas from it & make it your own. You may have wools & fabrics at home that you would like to use, please bring them along. They will all look perfectly lovely. There will also be kits with similar wools & linen available to pre-order from Cowslip. The day will no doubt be a busy one, but a whole lot of fun as well! REQUIREMENTS: Pattern is included Background…approx 29”x14”. This can be any fabric of your choice, wool, linen, flannel, cotton etc. I used an over dyed BlackBerry Primitive linen in ‘Denim’ colour from Cowslip. The final piece will measure approx 271/2” x 13” Wools . Scallops, top & bottom…27”x 3”. If you don’t have a long enough piece of wool, it is very easy to butt shorter lengths of wool together & it doesn’t have to be all the same colour. For mine I used Blackberry Primitives ‘Indigo’ wool. . Sheep …each sheep can be cut from a piece 7”x 5”.
