Textile Fabric Painting with Stitch with Susan D’Souza

Textile Fabric Painting and Stitch : Plant & Garden Inspired

 

with Textile Artist & Teacher Susan D’souza

Wednesday 14th July 10.00am-3.00pm

 

 

Using inspiration from the stunning and colourful array of plants at Sussex Prairie Gardens learn how to focus on a small section of the gardens to create a design idea and translate this into a beautiful textile artwork for sketchbook or to frame. Hand painting with fabric dyes will form a base for further areas of stitched detail. No previous textile experience necessary but the opportunity for experienced textile practitioners to extend their skills.

 

1 day workshop total cost £70 per person including materials

      Wonderful garden well worth a visit. Great variety of plants showing so many ways of portraying a garden layout. Must comment on the great tea and cakes selection, our dog loved the doggy ice cream!

      Beautifully planted area, in which you are encouraged to walk along paths between the plants so can be completely surrounded by foliage - a lovely effect.
