This week for Throwback Thursday we go back to the basics. Lately, I’ve been fielding quite a few inquiries from people who are new to fabric collage. They have questions about patterns and fabric selection and even what kind of glue I use, so I figured it must be time to go back to the beginning. “Why Glue?” is one of my most viewed blog posts. It is at the heart of fabric collage. For newbies this may be something of a revelation. For those with experience, it may serve as a good refresher.
This Saturday in your regular post, we’ll have a fresh batch of online submissions to the Fabric Collage Finish Line. The focus this week will be on portraits. Remember you can submit your finished fabric collage quilt by using this link:

For instructions on the entire fabric collage process, you can purchase the Susan Carlson Fabric Collage Online Master Class Manual. Using video, photos, and text I take you from soup to nuts, beginning to end in creating your own fabric collage masterpiece.
