About this Event

Make art and enjoy community at The Dabbler's Collective's monthly Craft Club!

At our July Craft Club, we will all be making the same projects! We provide all the materials and any support you need, and you enjoy self-guided craft time with friends new and old. While delighting in some delicious food and beverage from Tabletop, of course.

July Project:

We will all be exploring the Japanese art of Kinusaiga or "quilting without thread." This process involves carving a design into foam or wood (this part will be done for you ahead of time, for the sake of time!) and tucking pieces of fabric into the shapes of the design to create a textured, quilt-inspired art piece. We will have loads of fabric scraps to choose from, so each piece is customizable and unique. The process is very simple to learn, and you'll build your skills as you gain experience throughout your project.

Projects will be 8"x8" and will come with a wooden frame for hanging (pictured.)

We have 6 designs to choose from, shown in the chart below!

Please Note: You will be prompted to select your design at checkout. This is so that we can carve them into your foam in advance. This part is time-consuming and a bit more difficult, so we will bring them prepped and ready for you to start adding in fabric. We want to make sure you have time to finish your project during the session!

We will not be offering the option to create your own design this round - in truth, it just isn't enough time! But this is a great way to learn this medium, and add a new skill to your tool belt to create more art later :).
