Skill Level:Confident Beginner - Advanced
(2 day class) In a relaxed atmosphere of warmth and good humor, students (even non-painters!) are instructed in the use of non-toxic permanent textile paints on cotton fabric suitable for quilts. Students generally complete about 3 yards of fabric pieces during the first day if weather is good and they are able to dry fabric outdoors.
The designs produced are a combination of planning and serendipity and will be incorporated into students’ wall quilts highlighting large sections of sky and foreground with a pieced design focus.
Day One students will paint skies, water, and foreground for a “cottage” or “mountain” quilt design. During this time, students will also experiment with mixing colors, manipulating fabric, and painting special effects.
Day Two students will work on a “Skyscape” quilt design. Design elements will be provided, and students then will select, and cut (yes, CUT!) their painted fabrics. There will be instruction and emphasis on fabric and design choices to convey “mood” and a “sense of place”
