‘MEET JACQUIE’ FABRIC COLLAGE workshop
with Linden Lancaster
This is a two-day class suitable for all skill levels. It would be advantageous for participants to have a basic knowledge of free-motion quilting.
Students may use my design ($5 for the pattern and print out) or use their own. If they would like to use their own design, they are required to bring a A3 colour and black and white copy, which has good contrast.
Requirements list
Fabrics: small amounts, large variety to choose from in white, yellow, red and blue/teal. Class participants could pool their fabric if they wish. Make sure there is light, medium and dark tones of each colour. Bring your scraps.
I usually use cotton, but other types of fabrics can be used. My favourite fabrics to work with are: batiks, brights (such as Kaffe Fasette), spots, stripes, checks, text, aboriginal, hand dyed.
You could also choose your own colour scheme if you are feeling brave!
Here are some of the fabrics I used:
A piece of white cotton to use as the substrate (this will be covered over) approx. 13 x 18’
A soft grey lead or fabric marker
A light box (if you have one, or a window can be used)
Blue painters tape
Small sharp scissors
Acid free glue stick
Sewing machine with accessories, including a free motion or ‘darning’ foot (you probably will not need this until the second day)
Topstitch needle size 80
Basting pins and/or spray
Strong tape, such as packing tape
Batting approx. 14x17’
Backing approx. 15x20’
A small batting ‘sandwich’ for auditioning threads and quilting patterns approx. 12x12’
Threads: bring a selection of threads in different tones of yellow and blue. Variegated threads work well for this project.
If you are designing your own subject:(All of the above requirements minus the fabric and thread)
A3 colour and black and white copy of your subject
A plain piece of A3 paper to make the pattern
Black fine sharpie marker
A variety of fabrics in a large tonal range from very light to very dark in all the colours of your subject.
A selection of threads to match your colours.
