Gardens Under Windows
4 to 5 days,  All Levels

In this class students explore various painting techniques to create a wall of their choice on cotton fabric.  For example; brick, stucco, clapboard and stone could be some of their choices.  The window frames will be designed and cut from cotton fabric and applied in 2 layers to create depth.  Various types of window boxes will be explored.  Within these boxes the student will create their own flower gardens using various stitches in free hand embroidery.  Students will create a sampler of many flowers while creating their gardens.  Each individual  will be assisted in creating their own designs and making a good rendering before starting.
