The common thread in these pieces is the overall design, which features reverse appliqué in a machine-stitched circular pattern. In typical Beryl fashion, however, this is just the start. Of course, the fabric selection must be considered, hand stitching and additional fabric (and paper) elements can be added, and a variety of mixed-media techniques may be included. As Beryl and Pokey work step-by step through re-creating each element, you’ll learn Beryl’s tips for designing, her approaches to machine and hand stitching, how she goes about incorporating the cutaway elements back into her pieces, and her strategies for applying mixed media to the surface (this includes applying gesso with a brayer, rubber stamping, and applying modeling paste through a stencil). Get ready to experiment with Beryl’s tips and techniques and create your own series of mixed-media art quilts.

mixed Media Art Quilts with Beryl Taylor

I agree with first reviewer. Not really that informative. I find Pokey as a distraction, and was really not necessary in the workshop.
Not bad, but not great either

Sometimes the product descriptions of these video workshops suggest that you will learn a lot more than you actually do. Again, this is a workshop where the viewer learns to make just one kind of quilt, really. There is a bit about various techniques that can be used in any art quilt, but no real discussion of variables to consider when using across different projects. Next time, I would also suggest just having the instructor in the video. The other person didn't add anything of value.
