Working with motifs from fabric used in Spirella garments, you will produce a decorative and colourful panel.
We will draw out a design using traditional batik tools then add colour with fabric paints.
You will take home your finished panel and you may then choose to add further embellishment, make it up into a cushion cover etc or pop it into a picture frame.
Open to adults, and children over age 12 if accompanied by an adult.

Pulled warp weaving  – Saturday 7th December 10am-12.30pm 

with Lucy Sugden 

Learn how to create a 3D form from a flat weave using pulled warp processes. In this workshop  we will explore 3D form creating corset inspired shapes we will finish the piece by pulling the warps to create a small three dimentional piece in a very similar way as you would pull the laces in to tighten a corset.

A workshop suitable for adults and children aged 14 and over if accompanied by an adult. Don’t know your warp from your weft, don’t worry no previous weaving skills are required.

Cost £30, all materials and equipment provided.
