About the Workshop:
“In this step by step ‘playshop’ you will learn how to manipulate photos from your phone into a repeat pattern fabric that you can have printed on a variety of fabrics, from basic quilting cotton
to knits and seersucker to use in sewing one of a kind garments, housewares and quilts. I will walk you though two image manipulation apps and one layout app needed to create a repeat
pattern. After you have created your pattern I will guide you through creating a Spoonflower account, uploading your design and ordering your fabric.
I will project the apps on a large screen while you play along. I’ll be there to hold you hand every step of the way! I work with apple devices and those apps are my preference but Android options available.”
