Fiber Art Fun — Finding Your Creative Voice
This is a fun workshop that will encourage your unique expression to create fiber art with line, shape, texture and color. We start out by making a color swatch reference workbook that you can use to jumpstart your choice of fabrics. Knowing which colors work well and why is something that separates the good pieces from the spectacular. You will learn specific techniques like couching, decorative machine stitching, simple hand embroidery, twin needle stitching, circular stitching and more! Combining these techniques in a variety of ways will change your thinking about the art of creation — making your pieces uniquely yours. There are no rules, you can’t make a mistake!

Stitch & Slash
This workshop will teach you the unlimited design possibilities of raw edge cut work. Starting with simple machine stitching (either free motion or regular stitching) you will stitch a design on the back of your layered fabrics. Then, it’s ripping and tearing (the most fun part!) to uncover a geometric pattern on the top. The final steps will be to hand stitch and machine couch to create your textured fabric art. This is another fun class where every design decision you make is based on the decision you made before.

Self Portraits
This workshop will teach you how to create a self-portrait in fabric. You will learn how to create a face and transfer that drawing to a pattern. You will select appropriate fabrics and construct a portrait that can be taken home for final finishing. No particular skills are required other than the ability to let loose your imagination and have fun. By the end of the day, you will have broken out of your barriers and will approach future compositions with a new found confidence and freedom to play, create, and be as original as you are -- in your artwork and in life!
