Join me for 4 full days of applique fun!

Doesn’t that sound wonderful? Come spend some time with me in Paducah at the AQS SEAM RETREAT—four relaxing days away from home, all about hand applique. I’ll teach you all the techniques you need (and then some!) to make my brand-new wall quilt, Christmas Cottage Cheer.

This cute quilt has never been published before. It’s made in two layers: the inner globe is appliqued onto a square, and then a floral layer is appliqued on a larger square. Once both layers are complete, we trim them up and stitch the circular center in place. Gold circles make it fancy :-).

This class is great for all skill levels—even if you’re brand new to applique. If you’re interested, click here. And if you have any questions at all, feel free to email me at becky.pieceocake@gmail.com.

Just so you know, my days of in-person teaching are winding down. So if taking a class together in person is on your bucket list, now’s the time to jump in. I’d love to see you there!

Join me at the 1st AQS SEAM Retreat!

AQS Members are invited to join me at a very special event: AQS Seam Quilt Retreat – Paducah, KY: Session 1 September 30–October 5, 2025

I’ll be teaching hand applique techniques used to make this 36˝ square quilt that features layered appliqué. Techniques include the invisible stitch, inner and outer points, curves, cutaway appliqué on small shapes, and much more. All skill levels are welcome! You’ll learn everything from creating templates to mastering invisible appliqué stitches. I will guide you through each step, ensuring you leave with a delightful project and the confidence to tackle more complex hand appliqué in the future.
