Face It: Collage for Fabric Portraits

Schedule

Sat Oct 02 2021 at 09:00 am to 03:00 pm

Location

Mattoon Train Depot - Lone Elm Room | Mattoon, IL

Draw, cut, collage, stitch and sew to create a whimsical portrait, self-portrait, or maybe your alter ego. In this workshop we will walk through basic facial proportions and features, sketch a whimsical portrait, cut pieces from fabric, fuse, then stitch using raw edge appliqué on the sewing machine. The finished piece can wrap a canvas, hang as an art quilt, or become a pillow. The $25 fee will be collected by check, cash, or electronic payment card on 10/2/21.
Basic supply list will be sent upon registration. We’ll break briefly for lunch; please plan to bring a sack lunch or pop out for a snack. Event sponsored by Coles County Arts Council.

Members: $25
Non-members: $25
