Send a message in your work by including large freehand cut letters (No patterns!) and phrases or poems or sentences using an alphabet cut from erasers. Susie will also demo several iPad apps that make adding text easy and show you examples of text on traditional and art quilts. Make foam stamps and learn how to use them with textile paint. Journal about the words you want to include and learn some composition tips that make it work. We will use both paper and fabric for our letters and design a small quilt to sew and finish at home. You’ll see a presentation of text on textile work from around the world and through the ages to inspire your own projects. www.susiemonday.com
