Learn to make a Turban Swag, the almost no sew treatment. This lesson will take you through all the steps in creating the more casual gathered TS-157 version of this treatment, but the basic principle is the same whether you want to make this style or the more formal TS-156 which features a folded swag in place of the gathers.
This DVD lesson is for intermediate to advanced skill levels as the treatment in this lesson is created without a pattern. Some previous experience with forming swags is helpful, but not necesary.
