Experimental Quilting Workshop – Two Sessions. Saturday November 5 and 12, 1-4pm

RedLine and Guildess team up for a workshop that combines aspects of printmaking, storytelling and quilting! Participants will create quilt squares using relief, screen printing and dying techniques with an emphasis on personal histories and experiences.

RedLine Mentor Artist Dara Larson will share her love for storytelling. Learn how stories and personal histories are told through the process of collaborative art making, textile design and quilting throughout the world. Bring a personal artifact, journal, photograph, etc. for inspiration.

Extra quilt squares created by participants will become part of a collaborative quilt donated to a local women’s shelter that will kick off Guildess’ fall/winter outreach program (www.guildess.wordpress.com). Participants are welcome to help with quilt construction. No experience necessary, fabric donations are encouraged. Cost: $60.  Pre-registration is required.
