WORKSHOP - EMBELLISHED QUILTED VESSELS
Description: |
Learn to make a simple pattern for a fabric vessel, cut the sides from stiff stabilizer, crazy quilt the sides. Then we'll have fun with decorative stitching, lots of embellishments (learn to make fabric and ribbon flowers, beaded fringe, and many others) and tons of different ideas to decorate, then easily construct your one of a kind sculptural art. Pure fun!!!
Add a bit of tulle, and some simple quilting and you will have created your unique masterpiece. If you prefer to finish your piece without sewing, that's okay too! No-sew finishing options are also taught. The results are wild, whimsical, and totally believable! No drawing skill needed, but expect to learn about values, contrast, lines, and eyes. And a new way of looking at fabric! |
