Reverse Appliqué is FUN - Machine Workshop: Hearts & Fleurs

August 15, 2025, 9:00 am - 4:00 pm

All Levels - 7 hours (1 hour break for lunch)

All times are local


Reverse appliqué gives a unique, dimensional look to your quilted piece! The design is created by the background fabric peeking out through cut-outs in the top fabric. When you do it by machine, it takes no time at all.  And even speedier when you Appli-quilt!

Learn the quick and easy steps in Eye of the Beholder’s trace, snip, iron and stitch process to machine reverse appliqué, and get pointers on how to satin stitch like a pro. To Appli-quilt layer your piece before stitching, so the satin-stitch becomes your first round of quilting. However, you do it, see the beauty of the reverse appliqué Hearts & Fleurs table runner (13” x 36”) revealed as you stitch; a table runner gem that looks fabulous in a myriad of colorways! Learn with others and experience the fun and beauty of reverse appliqué by machine.


  • Open up a world of creative possibilities. Reverse Appliqué is fun with the easy 4-step process.

    Learn how enjoyable it is to:
    * Be inspired and have some fun!
    * Easier & speedier by machine with Trace, Snip, Iron & Stitch

    If you want to learn a bit about this technique before the workshop, check out our Tutorials section on the website: Machine Reverse Appliqué Tutorial.

See below for downloadable Workshop preparation/materials list instructions. It’s essential that you pre-cut as there will not be time in the workshop to do this, so this will help us make best use of our time together. Guild members order the pattern from this website. The practice pattern will be included in your class cost through the guild and be provided by instructor on the day of the workshop . All links open in a new window.
