The second class I taught for the
Sagebrush Quilters in Kamloops (after the
Ripless Tulips workshop) was
Quilting with Fat & Fuzzy Threads. Students learned about thick threads to stitch 'upside down' - these threads are wound in the bobbin. They also learned several ways to use fuzzy threads in their work.
Here are a few sample photos.

Seaweed (red) and texture added to underwater scene. |

Fuzzy threads couched on the surface. |

Testing a range of stitch options for couching. The 'yarn' is shown at the top of the picture. |
This was a 'process' class - students didn't make a project. Instead they made samples and recorded their results so they can refer to the samples when they want to add sparkle or texture to a future project.
Which do you prefer? Process classes or project classes.
Drop me a note and let me know. I'm interested in your preferences as I continue developing new classes.
