Colorful Hourglass Blocks and Embroidery Stitches - Charisma Horton | Mystery Quilt - Michelle Renee Hiatt
(Show 3811) Meet Charisma Horton, a dynamic quilter and longarm artist known for her bold, colorful contemporary patterns and love of embroidery. With a passion for putting a fresh spin on traditional quilt blocks, she demonstrates how even classic designs can feel brand new, like her hourglass block shown in three color combinations — two fabrics, three fabrics, and four fabrics. With a lifelong love of handwork and embroidery, she shows how her Sewcuterie sampler is a perfect project for experimenting and building confidence. Charisma also shows how to add texture with the Bullion stitch in both 2-strand and 6-strand variations, and how simple embroidery stitches can be combined with basic sewing to create mini quilts, journal covers, and thoughtful gifts for friends and family.
Then, meet Michelle Renee Hiatt, the mystery woman behind the AQS shows — an award-winning quilter, designer, and national instructor who has crafted 10 captivating mystery quilts, inspiring makers of all levels with her creativity and expertise.
