Retiform Technique

April 22, 2022 by Tracie

This technique has been around for a while but I just saw it for the first time a few weeks ago in my Pinterest feed and knew I had to try it. I have seen a multitude of ways that it can be done and while I have included measurements in my instructions, it’s really more of a free form technique like a crazy quilt. Start in one area and work your way across the cardstock til you have filled it.

My free PDF file below has several examples of different ways you can fill your cardstock, but if you would like to see a card made live, join me for my free zoom class on May 19th. RSVP by clicking Here.
