Stitch and Surface this Fall

I just finished typing up the syllabus for Stitch and Surface, a 10-week course I teach at Fleisher Art Memorial. I have a full roster of 14 students signed up, much to my amazement since it's going to be a morning course this semester. Every semester I like to offer totally different projects and techniques so that repeat students can come for a new experience.

So this Fall we'll be working on the following ideas:
  • an embroidered graffiti tag to get everybody to loosen up.
  • sunprinting using setacolor fabric paint while we still have some sunlight and warm days
  • a "quote" sampler
  • Using photoshop to prepare images for a blackwork project ( heheh, I'm no photoshop expert but we're going to wing it)
  • And finally a mapping/fabric collage project This is all incredibly ambitious and we'll see how far we get. Hopefully the students will enjoy the challenge!
