Description
The shapes and colours that emerge when using bleeding tissue are quite serendipitous and can make the design stage quite organic and great fun. however, some basic principles of landscape composition are covered and you will have the opportunity to study lots of examples to help you create a little landscape gem.Tissue is treated and then used to create collages which will make up the layers of your landscape using free machine embroider.
Free machine and hand embroidery techniques will be demonstrated. This project is a lovely way of ensuring you always have a little portable hand embroidery project on the go.

Had a fun day with Dot today. Lots of ‘playing’ with various elements’, yet ended up with a superb finished item. Our tutor, Dot, is full of encouragement and helps us all to go that ‘little bit further’. A delightful and fun day. Thank you Dot, and Alex.

I can only add to all the other 5 star reviews, Dot is a great tutor who encourages and supports us on a journey from raw materials to a completed box framed colourful mini landscape. The basic materials and processes are very different though – paper!! We even get plenty spare to take home to produce even more of our own colourful landscapes at home! 2 days well spent! Highly recommended!

I would highly recommend this workshop. Dot is a fabulous tutor, patiently guiding us all through various techniques and processes, to finally produce our own individual works of art. 2 wonderful relaxing days! Thank you Dot.

What a great workshop with the utterly fabulous Dot. She taught us with enormous patience, encouragement and lots of good humour.
Two days flew past, learning lots of new techniques, and I ended up with a picture I was really pleased with (and was surprised I was able to make).
I can very happily recommend this workshop.
