Textile inspiration workshop

I´m at Buskerud Folk high school for a couple of days, having a textile inspiration workshop for textile arts and crafts teachers in the folk high schools. 12 students (teachers) and me. I´m trying to throw in several techniques, both useful for beginners and students and interesting for trained teachers. The main practical assignment and technique today though, has been sewing bags and purses with applique and machine-embroidery. In between I´ve shown some of ways to transfer an photo onto fabric.

Let me show you just a few of the many trial-faces of the first stage:

Grete´s cat-face.

Line´s baby-face.

Gunn´s detailed face.

I´ll be back with loads more photos tomorrow.
