All Materials Included
This is a great explorative workshop using patinas as reference and inspiration.
We will be using a myriad of fabrics, paints and techniques to produce two delightful A5 samples, also using stencils, foils, metallic threads and the heat tool. There will be lots of advice about colour, texture and machine stitching, concentrating on adding depth and contrast to your work. Your finished piece could be framed or used to help you on future textile projects.
Includes homemade lunch and refreshments
