Fiber Play Days: Create Your Own Wearable Art!
Instructor: Jeanne Weymouth

Explore the endlessly inventive world of wearable art.   Whether you transform an old sweater by reshaping it with a few snips of the scissors; or rework a coat with original applique designs;  or use bleach to create new patterns on t-shirts; or embellish with anything from old laces, ripped silks, freeform crochet or fabric paints ... you will surprise yourself with the countless fiber art techniques you can incorporate into the creation of one-of-a-kind wearable art ! 

Painted Cloth Diary Books
Instructor: Susan Shie
Date: Fri Oct 29, 2010 - Sun Oct 31, 2010
Bring out your freer inner self and get your creativity really flowing out again. In this three day program, you'll start a small book, exploring hand brush painting and line drawing with markers and airpen on white cotton fabric, to create diary paintings and turn them into quilted book pages. Draw freehand on Kona cotton with black permanent fine tip markers, then brush paint in the colors, and finally use the markers again, as well as an airpen, to write freehand on the surface, creating a verbal texture over the images in the story.
