Hot Summer Workshop News
I invite you to come to beautiful Haliburton, Ontario July 14 - 18 to spend 5 exciting
days with me while learning to design, print and create your own Memory Quilts!
A memory quilt is a unique and beautiful way to commemorate a family event,
history, trip, celebration, other occasion. You will explore three different techniques
for reproducing your favourite photos onto fabric in an inspirational and
encouraging environment. I will show you how to print photos from the computer
as well as the hands-on gel medium method for generating photographic fabrics.
For your truly unique Memory Quilt you will learn how to mix your personal
colour palette using environmentally friendly Colour Vie fabric pigments, as well as
make stencils, stamps and a variety of textures. The photos and the printed
cloths produced in class will be used to design anything from a quilt top or
cushion cover to wall pieces. Just imagine the opportunity for creating
personal statements on fabrics that you can use in your Memory Quilts
and other textile projects!
No machine sewing is necessary in this class. $322.53
