“Rich Pickings – 3 Kings”

“Shades of Serenity Memory Book”
Using “Heirloom Pickings†or your own collection of heirloom pieces, create this subtle sepia memory book.
The book features, dyed lace, handmade cord which forms the stitched “Snake spine†and hand made stitched paper inside for the attachment of your treasures.
This is an original way of displaying selected old black & white photographs. It is a good idea to use copies of your photographs so you can keep the originals safe.
As with all my workshops a maximum of 12 persons per class, unless agreed otherwise.
Kimono Magic is a “Revelation Burning” workshop using a preprinted panel by Kona Bay Textiles and converting it into an individual piece of work. During the workshop we should get one panel completed and then you can go on to finish the others to make the wall hanging as illustrated.
This is my favourite panel in the series of four, but it would take on a completely different look depending on the organza used or the details you decide to “reveal” Sewing machines and soldering irons at the ready and let’s go!
Calling all Magpies! Are you a collector of lace and buttons, if so this is the one for you.
This is a workshop to use up all those beautiful bits that you keep hoarding and adding to! The lace is dyed several shades of purple, stitched to a background and then embellished with treasures. You can bring your own pieces ready dyed or choose from the range of ready dyed packs available. This could be a hand workshop for those who don’t like machine work but it is obviously quicker by machine.
