10:30 am – 4:30 pm, ½ hour lunch break
Location: Upstairs classroom (access via stairs only)
NOTE: We’re so fortunate that Seth creates exclusive new classes for our Creative Minds to enjoy! This class listing will be updated with Seth’s sample photo, info on your kit fee — for Made to Measure, Seth is selecting a premade journal so everyone works with the same size — and your student supply list as soon as we receive complete information from Seth. Thank you for your understanding!
“In this one-day workshop, we will be working in a journal that will serve as a basis for a made to measure, fabric swatch book,” says Seth. “Imagine an updated version of an old school, vintage fabric sampler that was used to highlight collections of fabric in days gone by [Seth's vintage photos that inspired him included here]. We will start by creating mixed media backgrounds. Each book, page by page, will then be filled with a unique combination of fabric pieces, layout, design, and text. In the end, each attendee will have a completely one-of-a-kind journal — made to measure.”
