Face It: Collage for Fabric Portraits
2021-10-02 14:00 - 20:00 UTC | Mattoon Train Depot - Lone Elm Room 1718 Broadway Avenue Mattoon, IL 61938
Draw, cut, collage, stitch and sew to create a whimsical portrait, self-portrait, or maybe your alter ego. In this workshop we will walk through basic facial proportions and features, sketch a whimsical portrait, cut pieces from fabric, fuse, then stitch using raw edge appliqu on the sewing machine. The finished piece can wrap a canvas, hang as an art quilt, or become a pillow.

Basic supply list will be sent upon registration. We'll break briefly for lunch; please plan to bring a sack lunch or pop out for a snack.

Event sponsored by Coles County Arts Council.
