2 NEW live Zoom workshops.
One of my favourite pieces of painted and distressed Tyvek - Ever! |
You never get the same effect twice when you heat Tyvek. |
Painted Bondaweb decorated with gold transfer foil, glitter threads and gilding flake. |
You don't need to do a lot to painted Bondaweb, it is quite beautiful as it is. This sample has been decorated with 2 swipes of copper transfer foil. |
Painted Bondaweb decorated with copper lame fabric. |
2 strips of textured Tyvek painted in similar colours to the Bondaweb background, stitched down with a toning thread. |
Painted Bondaweb, decorated with gilding flake, newspaper strips and textured Tyvek strips. |
Tyvek has been painted with the same paint as the Bondaweb. You can still see the Tyvek, it's just more subtle when you use toning colours. |
3 layers of heavy paper Tyvek layered with polyester organza, machine stitched together and then zapped with a heat gun. |
Tyvek beads. |
Cellophane reacts to heat in the same way as Tyvek. This is one of my bowls, you may have seen it in Hot Textiles. |
This bowl has been made from Tyvek and polyester organza. |
A fabulous collection of corsages. |
I just love this Tyvek and polyester organza corsage. The colours work so well together. |

Workshop 3 – Create Original Designs and Making Printing Blocks €65
Saturday 24th April 10.00 am – 4pm, 1 hour lunch 4 places left
Workshop 3 - Catch Up and Show and Tell
Saturday 8th May 10.30 – 12.30
The most important part of teaching for me, is to encourage students to
create original work. This workshop is brilliant for those of you who
want to create your own designs and then create your own printing
blocks. We will work with an inspiration of your choice. If you have
done the 'Journey' exercise with me, you could use that. The materials
list will give you some ideas if not. You should finish this class with 2
pairs of printing blocks ready to print and maybe stitch for your show
and tell.
To give you an idea of what we will be doing - have a look at this post on my blog

Workshop 4 - Raising the Surface for Stitch €65
Friday May 28th 10am – 4pm
Workshop 4 Catch Up and Show and Tell
Friday 11th June 10.30am – 12.30pm
Working with Bondaweb and Tyvek, along with other ways to create texture, you will develop some great raised surfaces to stitch over and across. By hand or machine. We will work on layering up the samples during the workshop. You will be able to stitch and develop more samples in the 2 weeks up to the Show and Tell. Tyvek is a fabulous product for creating interesting textures, but needs to be blended into your work by using toning colours and incorporating stitch.

We will be painting and stitching, incorporating polyester organza with this wonderful medium then heating it with various tools to create fascinating textures, bowls, vessels or sculptural forms. You will need a sewing machine for the workshop.
