Scratching the Surface

In this 2-Day class, be prepared for FUN, for we'll be exploring various ways to effect the surface of fabric, opening new doors for creating unique and inspiring fabric!

On day one, you will learn how to take simple crayons and fabric paints to create ‘your own’ new and exciting fabrics. Play all day with textures and learn how to create and use your own rubber stamps.

On day two we will take blah pieces of fabric and learn several methods of using paint (and the art of natural-neutrals) to change the surface of a fabric. We may not scratch out a design, but you’ll learn ways to add drama, whimsy, character and sparkle to your fabric and make your quilts uniquely ‘you’.

The paints provided for use in this workshop contain no dangerous dyes or chemicals. No need for facemasks or endless rinsing. Soap and water clean up, and after heat setting your fabrics are washable. Join the fun! You will go home with wonderful fabrics to be used in your next quilt projects and the skills to create much, much more!
