Embroidery for Molas
All Levels - 3 hours
All times are Local: 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Location: Victory Hall
Workshop: AQS Lancaster #55W3501
After the stitchwork of a Mola is complete, interest is added by the Kuna makers with some very finely worked basic embroidery stitches. The running stitch, seed stitch, chain stitch, feather stitch, fly stitch, and buttonhole to name a few. They are worked in threads or floss. Come learn these basic stitches and how they are used so you can embellish your Molas / favorite quilt pieces with embroidery with a modern twist.
If you want to learn a bit about this technique before the workshop, check out our Tutorials section on the website: Hand Reverse Appliqué tutorial.
See below for downloadable Workshop materials list. All links open in a new window.
There is a Required Kit for a fee that must be purchased in addition to the workshop.
If you’d like us to make a mola prior to class, make the Sprig Mola mug rug. The pattern comes in your required Kit, You can also choose to buy an optional fabric kit put together by us perfectly to suit the pattern’s design and style. There are several colorways to choose from.
