We will be creating a mixed media art piece. There will be an option to choose a free form, striped or gridded design. We will make the background fabric from scratch then add various elements onto this to create our design. Come along with a willingness to try something new and an apron. A full list of requirements will be in the newsletter.

This month for our social day we will be creating an abstract or landscape style image from layered and cut fabrics. You will get to design your own piece or follow a pattern provided. Machine or hand embellishment can be added as well.

Pamella offers participants many options to complete a night sky scene. Example of photos shown on requirements list or please provide a photo of a night sky of your own choice.  It promises to be a very rewarding day with like-minded enthusiasts. If you don't have photos that are suitable, there are millions on the net but be aware of copyright. Bring an embellishing machine if you have one or hand tools available from Spotlight.  Instructions will be emailed out on registration.   Pamella said that this workshop does not require a lot of supplies, to just bring what you have. $50 entry fee for members/$60 entry fee for non members.  Members given first preference on attendee list.  

We are inviting anyone who is interested in joining our group to come along and see what we do.  There will be a demonstration about creating textured surfaces on textiles using art mediums and some other demos. We will have a show and tell display of our members work and yummy afternoon tea.It will be a great way to meet everyone in a relaxed setting.

Participants in this workshop will be playing with many beautiful hand dyed fibres and fabrics, looking at how they layer and texture. You will be using vibrant colours to explore the movement and ingredients that make a garden magic.
