2:30-3:30 pm Featured Presentation: Applique with Sandy Andrews
Applique is a decorative technique where smaller cut-out pieces of fabric or other materials are adhered to a larger background fabric to create a picture, pattern, or texture.

As a Fiber Art Guild of Pittsburgh member for over 20 years, Sandy Andrews has had a passion for fiber and fabrics all of her life. After graduating from the Art Institute of Pittsburgh’s School of Interior Design, she worked in the custom drapery and fabric field for several years. During this time, Sandy gathered a collection of fabrics that led her to use as her means of artistic expression. This took the form of abstract, organic sketches being transformed into a fabric design appliquéd onto a background material. The finished piece is then stretch and stapled over a custom wood frame.
