We will use sewing machines to create freehand, organic, textural pieces of stitched thread and fabric. These will then be glued to collagraph card and we will explore adding additional textured materials and using mark making techniques to create a highly textured and interesting collagraph plate.
​
The second session will be all about printing from these plates onto paper. We’ll explore different ways of inking the plate to create a series of prints on paper.
