We were shown a huge variety of techniques and ideas including ribbon fabric, contour quilting, textured
surface with internal cording, crackle
with wax and indigo dye, layering
up, stitching and cutting back with a chenille cutter using fabric
paint on Perspex – pulling fabric away to achieve irregular patterns, inking
up and printing with leaves, creating
crinkle touch petals, layering
sheer to create shadow, using frayed
edges for grasses, machining fabric with images and creating coastal
landscapes with horizontal strips of lace, scrim and hessian in a portrait
frame.
