Intertwined Hearts


There is a smallish art & workshop gallery near me http://wallkillriverschool.com/Page_1.html that carries my work in the handmade gallery portion of their storefront. They have asked me if I'm interested in conducting a workshop. Of course I am but on what? Since I want to try to keep the word quilt out of it (you know, so people don't think this is a course in how to do Log Cabin blocks) I wonder if I should develop something that combines collage elements. Maybe how to use water soluable stabilizer to make 'fabric' and then how to embellish it? Such as the piece above.....

This piece is offered in my Etsy store.

Think -- and say -- "mixed media"
i think teaching is great fun, I hope it turns out to be so for you.

You always have the right words Melanie....yep, mixed media with a focus on cloth and fibers....unless of course I do the paint altered with alcohol workshop they have also suggested...
