Coaxing Summer onto Cloth - Oct Only
October 20th 1-4pm // $52.5
Class Description
This is the listing for booking a single session in the remaining Coaxing Summer Onto Cloth workshops! Join us for, "Coaxing Summer onto Cloth," where a cohort of textile enthusiasts and textile curious folks will explore various methods of capturing the beauty of summer and early fall on fabric. Throughout the workshop, you'll learn how to create stunning prints of flora, culminating in the creation of a unique quilt or wall hanging featuring prints from throughout the season. We'll visit a local farm, make a mini flower press, capture plant silhouettes using the sun, coax the color from plants by pounding and steaming, and combine all the results into a beautiful piece of textile art that captures the essence of this joyful season in New England. In October (Sunday October 20th 1-4pm) , as the air gets chillier, we'll gather to assemble our captured blooms into wall hangings and quilts, learning quilting basics and hand stitching techniques for embellishment. No experience necessary. Workshop price includes all materials (pre-treated fabric for dyeing and cyanotypes, flower press materials, fresh blooms) and scholarships are available (please contact us via email for more info!)
