Description
Using folk art motifs as inspiration, the aim is to produce a central image and a border of small block printed fabrics in the beginning of the session. These will then be collaged and added to with lace, ribbon and stitch.
Hunt through your collections to find folk art inspired fabrics, old embroidered snippets of tea cloths or handkerchiefs – also any images that inspire you.
It’s helpful to think about colours and choose some that you would like to work with on the day. You can use one of Anne’s folk inspired panels to add to your piece.
