Course Description
An on-line course over 4 working sessions, including an introductory session and a feed-back session, which will give you a few weeks to complete something.
The Introductory Session: 26th February at 2.15pm Sessions dates and times: 4th, 11th, 18th, 25th March at 2.15 to 4.30pm Feed-back Session: 29th April at 2.15pm
Effective use of ‘Line’ is one of the most important design considerations in textile art, and compositions have more impact when this element is expressed visually and intentionally.
During this on-line course you will investigate ‘Line’ through a series of design and stitch exercises, with each session offering new experiences in developing ways of working with papers, paints, fabrics and threads to explore this essential element. You will experiment with ink, collage paper and cloth backgrounds, then further embellish these with linear marks in print, hand embroidery and/or machine stitch.
The emphasis will be placed on making lots of small samples to fill a sketchbook (some of which will be print or stitch ‘sketches’) which can be used as an aide memoire for future work, but there will also be scope to make a larger composition if preferred.
