Embellished Fabric Collage
Fabric collage, piecing, and slow stitch
We all have pieces of fabric we’ve saved for “something.”
This workshop is about finally using them.
Fabric collage is a forgiving, flexible medium that allows you to work intuitively or from a clear idea. Through layering, piecing, and slow stitch, you’ll build a textile surface that evolves as you work.
We’ll explore:
• Working with collected and irregular fabric pieces
• Building composition through placement and layering
• Simple piecing techniques to hold elements in place
• Slow stitch as a way to connect, define, and build texture
• Moving between planned design and intuitive making
• Letting the work develop rather than forcing an outcome
This workshop builds on basic embroidery skills.
Completion of the Stitch Book Workshop is recommended.
