During this eight-week course you will develop and complete your own book made entirely with textiles - a stitch journal, a photo album, a family history, a text-based work, a child’s sensory book, etc. This is an opportunity to experiment with story-telling, colour, shape and pattern through needlework and book-making. We will begin by planning out the book, then adding to it every week and finally binding the book. You will learn embroidery, appliqué and quilting techniques as well as explore the fascinating world of book-making. You will be introduced to historical and contemporary artist practices.
Some materials included.

This course allows you to explore multiple possibilities of handling white or coloured paper by considering the creative potential of a textile approach to this material. We will study different papers and several techniques allowing us to modify their surfaces either by softening them, stiffening them or by texturing them to create volume. A repertoire of proposed techniques will serve as inspiration for the realisation of a work of textile paper in 2D or 3D. For beginners. Some materials included.
