Working in a Series with Fabric Collage

Latifah Shakir, Teacher

​

Time: 10 am to 4 pm

Place: Southwest Arts Center

Fee: $50.00

 

Learn how to create your one-of-a-kind collage masterpiece. This technique will teach you to create endless possibilities of an overall design. The class will focus on preparation, design principles and choosing beautiful fabric from your stash. 

​

You will practice observing the fascination of color, learn how to layer on fabric and use interesting textures or scraps of your choice. You may use machine stitches or an abundance of meditative hand stitches. If you prefer to stitch by machine, bring your sewing machine. Stitching by hand only requires normal sewing supplies.

 

Your quilt will be uniquely yours created in a relaxed and fun environment.

 

If you prefer not to use your own fabric, a kit will be available to purchase on the day of class. A complete supply list and kit fee will be provided later.

​

Continental breakfast and lunch included in the class fee.
