Hurrah! We're Teaching Again Soon

Sonja and I are very pleased to announce that we are offering several workshops at the Williamsburg Contemporary Art Center next month.  These workshops are part of the center's Textile Extravaganza planned for March 16 - 31, 2019.  We'll be doing a trunk show there on Sunday March 31, 1:00 - 3:00 pm.  We'll be showing examples of our work and talking about what inspired them and the techniques were used in creating them.  We'd love to see you there.  (Admission is free and light refreshments will be provided.)

It has been so long since we've done workshops and trunk shows that it's a little scary, but the satisfaction we've felt in the planning process is also energizing.  We're happy to be working together again..We're a good team, each able to support the other in getting things done.  So here's what we have planned:

Ann is teaching -

• Creative Embroidery - Tuesday, March 19, 10 am to 1 pm - Your chance to try some "no rules" embroidery,
• Stitch Meditations - Tuesday, March 26, 10 am to 1 pm - An introduction to Liz Kettle's approach to meditation through mini hand-stitched artworks.

Sonja is teaching -

• Gelatin Mono Prints - Saturday, March 16, 1-4 pm - Try out a simple printing technique for capturing incredible detail.
• Stamp, Stencil, Print - Saturday, March 23, 1-4 pm - Explore a range of techniques for patterning fabric and paper.
• Mixing Media Collage - Saturday, March 30, 1-4 pm - Collage fun with fabric bits, papers, and more.

No prior experience is required for any of the classes.  Just come to have fun and try something new.  For full details on our classes, click here.  Other exhibits, workshops (felting and quilting) and events are also planned for the Textile Extravaganza, so also watch the WCAC website over the coming weeks for the latest info. 

Before I sign off for today, I thought I should share a photo of the completed version of one that I'd only shown progress shots of before.  I call this one "Leaves."  The real thing will be on display at the Art Center during the Textile Extravaganza.
