Creative Textile Explorations

Creative Textile Explorations

In this workshop, participants are invited to embark on an engaging exploration of textile techniques. The workshop offers a hands-on journey into the fascinating world of textile design, covering a spectrum of skills such as color mixing, resist methods, printing, stencils, Lino, and hand applications using water-based pigments.  Meticulously crafted for accessibility and feasibility in home environments or studios with minimal equipment, the course is designed to accommodate all skill levels.

Throughout the workshop, participants will learn techniques and explore methods that can be applied to create fabrics suitable for various purposes, including wall hangings, sarongs, cushions, scarves, pillows, and more. The course is tailored for individuals who enjoy experimentation and the creative process, drawing inspiration from the surroundings at the college or personal source imagery.
