Snippets of fabric, lace, ribbons and buttons, will incorporate into a unique and tactile fabric book personal to you.
What will I create?
Your expert tutor will guide you through the assembly of your book, focusing on fabric manipulation and layering to achieve depth and texture. You will have the opportunity to add stitch, appliqué and embellishments throughout, allowing you to personalise your creation and make it truly your own.
Full details
Materials will be supplied, but you may also wish to bring additional items such as a your own basic hand sewing kit (scissors, needles, etc) and any special snippets of materials you would like to include in your design.
Other information
We are delighted to welcome mixed media textile artist Deb Cooper to CasaLingua for this very special creative workshop. Deb is renowned for her use of a subtle and gentle colour palette, carefully selecting faded, natural tones that give new life to old and discarded materials. Her work often hints at hidden memories, layering meaning and emotion within each piece. Deb is a local artist but travels nationwide to deliver her workshops and is in demand!
You can see more of her work at www.debcoopertextileart.com or on her Instagram feed @debcoopertextileart.
Refreshments: Teas/coffees and biscuits are provided at this event so please be sure to let us know at the booking stage if you have any allergies or dietary requirements.
Duration: Approximately 6.5 hours.
