Creative Textiles Day - Textile Art, Collage, Embroidery

Make full use of the Stitching Kitchen Studio and fabric stash to get creative with Fabric and Thread. Using one of my designs as inspiration or perhaps working from your own photo or sketch you will create a piece of textile art from the wide variety of fabric textures, embellishments and threads.

Using the sewing machines in either sewing or free motion mode you can stitch layered fabrics. Further embellishment to add more texture and depth using a variety of yarns, threads and beads, buttons and sequins can be added by either hand or machine stitch.
The finished piece can be framed to hang on a wall or incorporated into another project.
