Event Description:
Petunia
This course will be based on acquiring a thorough knowledge of your sewing machine with an imaginative approach to the creation of contemporary, innovative, samples. A basic machine that will do zigzag stitches is required. If your machine has greater capabilities and is equipped with computerized memory, etc. it also will be just fine for this course. The course will be focusing on the large variety of effects that can be achieved through imagination, rather than through the mechanical capabilities of machines.
Following are some of the skills you will learn: ♦ Painting fabrics for embroidery ♦ Sampling and experimentation with automatic stitches, zigzag stitches and free machine embroidery ♦ Creation of transparent effects by layering, fusing, appliqué (bonding) ♦ Machine lace
