Fusing Art Quilts Will Melt Your Heart!

Bring your doodles off your sketchbook and into the world of fused art quilts. Many enjoy the creative flexibility and little to no sewing experience that comes with it. Laura Wasilowski is the self-proclaimed master of fusing, and her internationally-exhibited works would agree. Let Laura guide you through creating original fused art quilts with your one-of-a-kind doodle designs.

You are the designer! Step by step, learn how to convert original sketches or doodles into a pattern and then into a completed fused art quilt. Learn different fusing techniques like pattern transfer, collage building, and bias fusing. Discover how to embellish the work with hand embroidery stitches that bring your artwork to life and complete your art quilt with an easy binding. Enjoy the experience of creating original fused art quilts from start to finish!
