English Paper Piecing Made Modern Workshop

I love the look of English Paper Piecing but did not like the traditional method. Folding fabric over paper, gluing or basting, whip-stitching and then pulling papers out. There had to be a better way! I designed self-stick templates that can be reused until they no longer stick (5-10 times). The templates enable you to cut multiply layers or fussy cut your fabric. Straight stitch by hand or machine, eliminating the previous mentioned time consuming tasks. I teach you how to use the templates, pick the fabric/color and stitch it all together by hand or machine.

Student Feedback

Becky's innovative applique technique can help improve your applique confidence and results!

As a new quilter -- I love the joy of modern quilting and satisfaction of results. I have always admired applique quilts but never dreamed I could obtain near perfect results that comes from years of practice -- until I met Becky. I attended one of Becky's applique classes and within 20 minutes I had an "ah ah" moment. I quickly realized that Becky had designed a fast and easy way to applique with near perfect results! Her teaching and methods gave me the confidence and inspiration to create beautiful applique quilts.

I'm still a new quilter but I'm now learning from the best! - Lisa

"hi Becky!! I am doing the pattern from the Rabbit Hutch called Blooms All Around and it has a ton of leaves. I decided to try your method of applique because after 30 leaves in my fingers were cramping from all the gymnastics that I have to do to applique. To say that I was surprised is MORE THAN AN UNDERSTATEMENT!!!WOOHOO!! Life is good when things actually work and I can not believe how much time was saved. I am hoping to have some pics up tomorrow. Thanks so much and I can not wait to become a student!"
