Fun with Fiber Art

This last weekend I taught a fiber art workshop at Tessera Fine Art Gallery in Wichita.  I had predyed bundles of fabric using mixes of purchased and natural dyes. I had also rusted some of the fabrics first using my rusting plates. Each participant got a bundle of lovely fabrics to start creating with.

We focused alot on composition as we arranged and rearranged our lovely bits and pieces.

I was so impressed by all the wonderfully creative designs that emerged!  Then we stitched it all together, using whatever stitches would accent the piece.

 

I especially liked all of the happy faces at the end of the day!

 

Here is my example piece:

Hope you have a great weekend!
