Halloween Kinusaiga: A Beautiful Fabric Collage Craft Party
About this Event
Step into the shadows and create hauntingly beautiful fabric art at our Halloween Kinusaiga workshop!
Kinusaiga (kee-noo-sigh-gah) is a traditional Japanese technique where you create stunning textured artwork using fabric instead of paint. The fabric is carefully pressed and tucked into carved grooves on a soft foam board, forming a detailed picture without any sewing. Each fabric piece acts like a brushstroke, with its color, texture, and pattern contributing to shading, depth, and movement within the design.
This class is perfect for beginners! No experience is needed. We'll guide you through every step, from transferring your design to tucking fabric pieces into place. You'll choose from a variety of colorful fabrics to create a design that is uniquely yours.
What You'll Make:
Each participant will create one Halloween-themed Kinusaiga piece. Choose from designs like haunted houses, black cats, full moons, twisted trees, or gothic florals. You'll select from a curated collection of fabrics in deep purples, blacks, oranges, and metallics to bring your design to life.

- Pre-cut foam board with your choice of Halloween design template
