Get started creating a fabric collage while learning and practicing basic techniques following a design from one of my patterns, or another of your choice. Techniques taught include –transferring a design onto foundation fabric, using steam-a-seam 2, fussy cutting motifs and more to create a colorful design from a simple, black line drawing. Explore design elements, including using color, value, and print size to create your own design to use in a wall hanging or pillow that you can finish at home. This is a design workshop and does not require a sewing machine for the class. Held at Portsmouth Fabric Company. Read more and register at Portsmouth Fabric Company or call them at 603.436.6343.
