PREREGISTER FOR THE SECOND GUIDED TOUR WITH FIBER ADVENTURES.
We invite you to join us for our second guided tour. We are currently accepting registrations for this 3 day workshop to be held the first weekend after Labor Day, that’s Sept 7-9 at Treehaven near Tomahawk, WI.
During this workshop we will focus on painting fabric, thread painting and free motion quilting. Jamie, who is an accomplished artist will be teaching about applying paint to fabric. No experience or artistic training is needed. Participants can choose to follow Jamie’s premade designs or create their own. Louise, who’s strength is in thread painting and free motion quilting, will be taking participants from the basics to more advanced designs and techniques. At the end of the weekend each participant will go home with a piece of their own which they have painted and stitched.
