Due to Covid 19, I have cancelled all my workshops and lectures through July 2022. Depending upon when our country reaches herd immunity, I might begin teaching in person in the fall of 2022. I lecture and teach all over the country. For more information about my availability and fees, please email me at carol@carolannwaugh.com.
Lectures
How Did I Get Here From There?
From a career in business consulting to full time studio fiber artist and owner of a contemporary art gallery, Carol will talk about her journey and share some lessons learned from moving from a left brain to right brain life. Her sense of humor will have the audience laughing as they relate to every aspect of her journey. Carol is a very popular lecturer at local and national quilting venues.
Workshops
- Fiber Art Fun
- This 5 day workshop combines techniques I developed in my Stitch & Slash and Stupendous Stitching classes and incorporates some fun new techniques as well. You will gain confidence to explore your unique expression to create fiber art with line, shape, texture and color. Learning these techniques and working with some novel materials will help you make your art quilts uniquely yours. You will create two beautiful pieces of fiber art that you will be ready to hang on your wall or use in a garment, pillow or tote bag. There are no rules, and you can’t make a mistake!
Stupendous Stitching
In this 1 day workshop, you will be combining couching, hand embroidery and decorative machine stitching to help you create fabulous textures and colors on batik cotton fabric. This is the class you need to explore and use all those hundreds of "decorative stitches" included in your sewing machine. You will also learn a new way to finish the edges of your piece with rattail cord and learn the secrets of mounting your art so it will hang on your wall beautifully. You will leave this class with a finished masterpiece!
Stitch & Slash
This 1 day 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.
