If you love playing with different mixed media art projects, please join me for this fun mini workshop to make wax paper art quilt blocks. Using beeswax encaustic medium and pigment, we will create encaustic monotypes that we will cut and collage into our own mini art quilt blocks. To finish, we will add decorative top stitching using sewing machines. Color, thread, pretty melting colors! It's so fun!!!
