Cut It Out! Reverse Appliqué on Tees & Sweatshirts

We’ll guide you step-by-step through the art of reverse appliqué—layering fabrics, stitching your design, and carefully cutting away the top layer to reveal a beautiful pop of contrast underneath. This technique is both relaxing and rewarding, with stunning results every time.
Design possibilities are endless! Keep it simple with a bold shape, personalize your piece with a word or phrase, or explore a more detailed motif. No matter your style, you’ll leave with a one-of-a-kind garment that’s uniquely yours.
This class is perfect for confident beginners and beyond—no prior appliqué experience needed, just a willingness to create and have fun.
Bring a favorite t-shirt or sweatshirt and get ready to transform it into wearable art!
