Double Reverse Appliqué “in” Ann Arbor

I did a second fun Zoom class with the Ann Arbor gals. This time it was Double Reverse Appliqué.

They made great progress. Just look.
Jennifer chose muted colors and they worked beautifully. (BTW, the focus on Zoom is great. It’s reduced here because the image has been copied and manipulated so many times.)

Colleen finished in just a few hours. Can you tell she’s pleased with her results?A student shows off her work in Ellen Lindner's Double Reverse Applique class (via Zoom.) AdventureQuilter.com

Susan used a fabric which featured a subway map of New York City. So, you can guess the name of her piece: “The Big Apple.” I love it!

Claudia took both classes and had great results both times.

June had taken the class before and had already made an apple. So, she jumped ahead and made a pear.

Later, she sent me a photo of the finished project. Great, right? Don’t you love the way the value changes make the pear (or apple) look 3D?

June was pretty taken with this technique and designed another pear of her own. She had fun mixing up the colors and I think the results are fantastic.

Susan also sent me photos of her finished projects. Here’s her “Big Apple.”

And her pear. Nice!

All of these ladies did a great job! We had no trouble communicating via Zoom and it was a lot of fun.

If you want to try this technique, you can learn via my eBook, or my on-demand class. (Or, of course, tell your guild program chair to “bring” me to your guild.) There are so many great ways to learn these days!

I hope you’ve had some fun learning opportunities during this pandemic time.

    All the apples look yummy and I liked the various additions such as shadows. The pears were nice too. My favorite was the last pear in the list of photos. It looked like it might be Murano glass from Italy.

      Didn’t they turn out great, Gretchen?

      June, who made the two pears, has since made one more and a pumpkin with the technique. She says she’s hooked and I believe her!

    looks like everyone had a great time. And the results are nice too. I think they would look great on stretcher bars as a kitchen/breakfast room wall art.

      Thanks, Sylvia. I know several of my students have used these in their kitchens. Since the apple and the pear are sized the same they make great companions, as well.

    You sure had a successful class, everyone finished a beautiful project, and even a second one. Definite reflection on an inspiring teacher.

    As always, your class was a rousing success, and why not? You make it easy for everyone to make something they love. Nice work, everyone!

      Thanks, Becky. I think we all had fun.

    I agree with everyone else’s responses.
    I love all of the apples and pears that people made.
    Great job!!

      You’re right, Susan. They all like great!
