Visual depth has fascinated artists for centuries. Karen has

developed a quick and easy rotary technique that allows you to make quilts with a 3-D look. Frankly, this is Karen's favorite class because it is so easy to create truly amazing quilts of illusion. Let Karen share her secrets, so you may become a master of illusion!

"Playing with Paintstiks"

Tuesday, May 18, 2010, 1:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m.

Workshop fee - $35

Location: To be determined

Supply List

Remember when you were in kindergarten, and you put a leaf or penny under a piece of paper, then rubbed the crayon on top of the paper? An image of the leaf or penny magically appeared on the sheet. That's exactly the idea with Shiva Oil Paintstik rubbings.  Students will create their own unique embellished fabrics using Paintstiks with batik stamps.  The completed fabric will be completely washable and colorfast.

Level: All Levels

 NOTE: The instructor will bring a wide variety of copper batik stamps for “Play” with the Paintstiks.  She also provides an ample supply of paintstiks for class use.   Copper Stamps and Paintstiks will also be available for purchase at the workshop.

It’s time to play with fabric in this terrific technique workshop. So grab your rotary cutters and let’s loosen up by cutting wild curves and dramatic angles!
