7003: Fiber Arts: Embellishing Your Project
This class will teach you how to create your own art piece by adding texture with fibers. I will show you how to add different fibers like sari yarn, rattail, thread painting, and more to create your piece of art. The sky’s the limit to what you can embellish with. I have used metallic threads, gemstones, feathers, cheesecloth, whatever you love. Many students will have painted their own fabric, then want to embellish it. That is great if you have a wonderful painted piece you want to bring. Otherwise, I would suggest a beautiful batik or hand dyed fabric. Your fabric could have words on it, then embellish around it. There really is no right or wrong in fabric choices.
