Drawing inspiration from the tradition and history of Kantha quilts, participants in this workshop will create hand stitched small (~12” square) layered fabric collages with textile scraps.

Artist and instructor Hadley Clark will demonstrate her own approach to collage both creatively and functionally in her studio, and will provide participants with basic instruction about layering and connecting textile remnants with the running stitch central to Kantha

quilts. This workshop will include identification of woven textiles versus knit textiles, discussion about basic design elements such as composition, color, and texture, and ongoing creative direction and functional instruction. This is a workshop open to sewists of all skill levels.

Participants will be provided with textile remnants, one hand sewing needle, and embroidery floss. You are welcome and encouraged to bring your own textile remnants and other sewing supplies like embroidery floss, scissors, thimbles, etc.
