NB Collage of Craft and Design-Introduction to Stitch -101
Tuesday I had the opportunity to introduce some of my favorite stitch and manipulation techniques to future Fiber Artist at the NB Collage of Craft and Design.
It was a very enjoyable day for me. Great to chat about fiber and to see what the next generation is up to. There was much to see but time was limited. I have to make plans to go back just to look.
I encouraged the students to design their own stitch lines from a little exercise I like and then it was on to a few techniques.
Everyone hard at work
I had supplied the materials of my hand painted synthetic felt and organza but some of them did bring in a collection from their own stash. Rachel had a nest of beautiful fibers that she had hand dyed and that I was nearly green with envy. Of course I had to take photos to see what results I could get from great colour and texture in the KK program.

Kaleidoscopes Continue 3
It is difficult to say what will make the perfect Kaleidoscope. Texture and a wide varity of values are very important. Also deciding what will work in which technique has to be decided. Some of these Kaleidoscopes would be perfect in Canvas work and others would be great in Quilt appliqued.
Stay tune for a list of of Work shops that I will be teaching here at Gated Hill Studio. The workshopes are designed to help those who are interested in exploring Design and Stitch.
