Kate Findlay Workshop – Birds
Make a bird applique picture in a day. Finished size approx. 30cm.
This highly creative and individual workshop allows each person to work on their own ideas with guidance from Kate
We will consider design, composition and colour. Using bondaweb, we will be cutting fabric shapes and ironing them down as raw edge appliqué. The composition can then be finished with hand or machine sewing as preferred. Bird templates will be provided, or you can draw your own. Ideas for settings will be given, including simple landscapes, or flowers/branches/garden ornaments to provide the setting for your bird.
Kate will demonstrate the use of fusible web, composition, and free motion stitching.
