<h1>Textile Collage Workshop Saturday                         1 May 10am to 4pm at Thistle Hall
</h1><p>We will be working from your ideas or photographs and I will show you how to design, piece and stitch a small illustration.  You will select your materials from a stash of eco dyed fabrics and threads and textiles from op shop finds.  I will show you how to apply your design to a foundation and then stitch it, using simpe sashiko techniques.  This workshop is suitable for beginners and skilled stitchers alike.
</p><p>Practical applications for textile illustrations include framed works, gift cards and wrapping, bags and pouches or purses, quilts, garment embellishment, visible creative mending and upcycling.  
</p><p>I am a sustainability advocate who promotes alternatives to commercial craft fabrics.  My arts practice sits at the intersection of traditional craft, contemporary design and social change.
