You'll learn about hand appliqué and reverse appliqué (window and door openings that give perspective), how to build your project and how to embellish and detail with simple embroidery and suggest a few details.

Martine will also teach you how to insert a blind or curtains etc... all these steps are very creative and fun to do, and what's more, this project is very cheerful!

At the end of the 2-day course, you'll still have a bit of work to do, but everything will have been studied and your project will be well advanced. With this course, you'll be able to launch your own projects.

For this course, there will be no kit offered, so you'll be able to personalize it, with a list of specific materials and a list of fabrics and threads to bring along. You can also use scraps of Japanese fabric to personalize your project.

To follow this course you need to have some basic knowledge of patchwork and sewing, embroidery is a basic stitch.
