£60In this textile / mixed media workshop you will use hand embroidery to stitch a stunning, colourful creature such as a beautiful fish, frog, bird, butterfly or seahorse. You will make a piece of fused fabric by layering felt, synthetic fabrics and netting which will be soldered together. This will form the base of your creature and it will be stitched extensively, with embellishments and a safety eye added prior to padding the piece.
A 25cm wire ring will be used to form the “Small World” in which your creation will be displayed. You will wrap the ring using patterned fabrics and make leaves, flowers and seaweed using funky foam and acrylic paints. Other media including wrapped pipe cleaners, sequins, coiled wire and beads will be attached with a glue gun. All materials included!
