This coming Sunday 2nd
March, I am running a workshop in conjunction with A White Dragon Papercraft
called “A Coat of Many Styles” at the Irish Club of Canberra. Coats and jackets are a fantastic way to show case paper quilting techniques and they are just so versatile.
In this workshop we will look at taking one simple shape –
the coat. We will then be using our favourite Paper Quilting techniques (such as Just
Squares, Strips, Crazy, Scrap or Applique), to turn this simple shape into
something simply extraordinary.
The coat will become an oriental tunic or a beautiful coat inspired
by fantasy or high fashion. Mix and match the design parts such as boarder hem
lines, cuffs and decorative shapes within the coat. This Paper Quilt can be as
simple or as complex as you like, so it is possible to create more than one
during the workshop. The pattern is one
which can be adapted and used again and again to create pictures your friends
and family will love.
The finished Paper Quilt will fit into a scrap book page
frame 30 x 30cm square or 20 x 25cm
rectangle frame.
I look forward to seeing all the fabulous and unique coat creations made on the day and look forward to bringing you all the pictures from the day next week.
Please email if you would like to attend.
Bye for now
Michaela
