Half-Day Workshop
9 am - 12 pm, Saturday, February 28
In this class, we start a wall hanging with different collaged circles. Different techniques for making circles will be discussed. The design is suitable for many styles of fabric, matching the student's preference. Any group/unit of fabric that has a common element can be used.
In the sample, you can see how I used the Marcia Derse Sketchbook fabric collection, but you could also use colors that go well together in any other style of fabric. You could make a Christmas, Halloween or Patriotic wall hanging, so many options.
The circles will be collaged and fused onto a background. The background can be as simple or as fancy as you want with high or low contrast. This will also be explained in class. It can be a single piece of background, it can be a collaged background like my sample. No sewing machine in class, but finishing options, including decorative stitches and quilting designs will be discussed.
The class is great fusing fun, and it will help you create contemporary quilts for yourself or as gifts. The class result will be a wall hanging, but the same technique can also used for washable table runners or larger quilts.
All Levels
Required class kit, $19 payable to the instructor in class, includes 1.5 yard of Lite Steam a Seam 2.
Students to Provide
* Fabric for the circles: 5 different colors and in each color at least 2 pieces in size 9" x 22". A total of 10 different pieces of fabric in size 9" x 22".For instance: in Patriotic fabric, 2 pieces in Navy, light blue, bright red, burgundy and white.
* Fabric for the background: we will use scraps left from the circles + bring as many scraps as you have that pick up the theme of your circle or match its color. For instance: in Patriotic fabric, scraps of the circles + any smaller patriotic fabrics and fabric (blenders) that will match well the 5 colors.
* Foundation: One yard of white or cream muslin. You can also use Pattern Ease. If you already know you want the circles on one piece of background, you can bring any background that you think will work with that.
* A ruler that can create a circle of 8.5" or 9". Any ruler will work. You will have to bring such a ruler.
* Optional: a ruler that can create smaller rulers. I recommend Lori Holt's Circle Ruler Set as this set creates 9", 6", 4", 2" circles.
* Rotary cutter and mat
* Scissors. I recommend the Karen Kay Buckley Scissors in blue (6") or green (4 3/16")
Optional: Students can order the optional kit in Marcia Derse fabrics as shown in picture in (blue/green) or in red/orange by contacting Carly at studiocarlymul@gmail.com before 2/18/2026. Kit is $49.50 and includes, foundation, circles and background scraps for collage.
I will bring a few Lori Holt's circle sets, scissors and Pattern Ease 1 yard cuts. Prices can be found at collagefabric.com (because of tariffs, I don't know the prices for next year).
I will bring fabric packages to class in many colors and also free scraps. Students are encouraged to contact me in advance if they have any specific plans for fabric use.
