Textile Art Greeting Card Mini-workshop

Learn the basic steps for creating beautiful textile art in the small format of a greeting card.  Maryann Lincoln, who leads this mini-workshop, creates beautiful cards and will inspire your own creative spirit.  Using small fabric pieces, threads, tulle and even stitching, you will arrange and secure materials to cardstock to create cards inspired by nature.  Maryann will provide some simple designs and a project bag with 3 pieces of cardstock, envelopes and a plastic cover. A $10 fee to cover the cost of supplies can be paid at the mini-workshop.  There will be a couple of sewing machines available for machine stitching, as well as iron and ironing surfaces, specialty fabrics (i.e., tulle) and adhesives. Limited to 20 participants.

Supplies to bring:

Scraps of interesting, nature-inspired well-pressed fabric

Background fabrics depicting sky, mountains, grassy fields, nature, etc.

A small cutting board

Scissors (various sizes) and forceps for positioning fabric pieces may be useful
