All Materials Included
This is one of my new workshops, elaborating on “Making it real” and introducing a 3D element; mostly with free motion machine embroidery and other exciting techniques. You will be working with hand dyed silk velvet, water soluble, Evelon, fine fabric and other mixed media.
I will be teaching you skills in machine embroidery, painting, wrapping and composition and at the end of the weekend you will go home with two completed mini textile sculptures.
Includes homemade lunch and refreshments both days
