SUMMARY:Summer Workshop - Denim Pockets
DESCRIPTION:This is our first day coming together to work on something for the exhibition next year.  \n\n\n\nThe idea is that we all decorate a pocket from jeans or a jacket in any way we want; machine or hand stitch/print/distress/applique – you get the idea – which will give us the beginnings of a display for the exhibition.  \n\n\n\nWe can decide how to put them together at a later date.  \n\n\n\nPlease remember this is supposed to be fun; Ann will bring some denim pockets for anyone who doesn’t have one. \n\n\n\nIf you don’t want to do this\, please just come along and stitch whatever you are working on! \n\n\n\nAs we need to cover the cost of the hall there will be a £5.00 charge; payment button is in the Member Area of the website

SUMMARY:Wendy Lloyd - Collagraph Printing on Fabric
DESCRIPTION:Learn how to make Collagraph Plates to achieve a wide range of effects and print onto fabric and papers suitable for embellishment with stitch using simple equipment. Go home with your plates\, lots of printed pieces and handouts for reference. Wendy will bring many stitched examples. \n\n\n\nWendy Lloyd is a textile artist\, printmaker and teacher living and working in West Berkshire. \n\n\n\nShe absorbed textile skills by osmosis from her mother – a textile artist who taught embroidery and helped to write the original City and Guilds patchwork and quilt-making course. \n\n\n\nShe joined the Dubai Quilters’ Guild as an expat and then moved from free machine quilting to machine embroidery and a City and Guilds course on her return to the UK. There she discovered fabric printing and subsequently moved sideways into printmaking on paper working with the Rabley Artist Printmakers (just outside Marlborough). \n\n\n\nShe enjoys stretching the boundaries of what print and textiles mean\, combining techniques and trying to remain playful within the technical constraints that different processes impose.

SUMMARY:Box Bags\, Baskets and Pods
DESCRIPTION:A Double Workshop with Tase and Amanda \n\n\n\nJoin us for a day of sewing and make some useful and lovely things to take home with you in these two workshops. Each workshop is approximately 2 hours long and will run side by side\, so you can enjoy one in the morning and the other in the afternoon. \n\n\n\nYou’ll need your machine and a basic sewing kit; choose to bring your own fabrics or kits can be provided at a nominal cost. Remember to bring your lunch! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBox Bag making with Amanda\n\n\n\n\n\nOrigami Baskets and Storage Pods with Tase\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThese ‘pert’ little box bags make fabulous gifts and can be made from left over pieces of upholstery fabric.  Amanda will guide you through the making of a bag and show other variations on the basic idea.  You can buy a pack of the fabrics and zip or bring your own materials.  Cost of a pack of materials for this workshop\, if you want them\, will be £3 plus the cost of the 8” zip. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\nMake these origami boxes and storage pods in no time at all! Useful in the sewing room as catchers (instead of putting things on the side and then wondering where you’ve put them…!) or around the house for those bits and bobs that are always lying around\, they make nice gifts too! A quick make\, in the two-hour session you should make at least one origami box and one pod. \n\n\n\nBoth the boxes and pods can be made from fat quarters\, and you’ll need some batting scraps as well. Tase will bring fabrics and batting if you need them\, price depending on size and style
