Summer fiber intensives!

 It's that time again! Registration is open and I'm in need for a few curious people to sign up for fibers classes at Fleisher. I'm offering Shibori in the am 10-1 and Stitch and Surface in the afternoon 1-4 the week of August 5th-9th. In Shibori, we'll learn a variety of resist techniques to get pattern and color on fiber, including pole-wrapping, clamping, stitching, and pleating. You'll become familiar with working with fiber reactive dyes, and you can work on cloth or on clothing blanks.
 In Stitch and Surface you'll be introduced to freehand embroidery techniques, sunprinting, and mixed media fiber collage. Projects will include a doodle sampler, an embellished sunprint, and an embroidery inspired by botanical prints. Or feel free to use it as open studio time to work on that embroidery project you've been stuck on.
To register for classes, head over to http://www.fleisher.org/workshops/special.php for more info. There's a 20% discount on the 2nd class for anyone who signs up for both!!
