Mixed Media Fabric Book



Make a unique sentimental book for a loved one or yourself with a variety or fabric and mixed media techniques.  We'll explore technology to transfer photos to fabric to include in our book.  A combination of machine and hand stitching will pair wonderfully with lace, wire, buttons and old jewelry embellishments to create a richly layered and textured 8-page book. The techniques you learn in this workshop can be used to make books of any size that tell your stories, share your memories or capture a creative moment.

Below is a brief description of how the class is structured.  Between each session, you'll need a do a bit of homework including selecting photos and gathering embellishments for your book. 

Session 1 – Browse through Carrie's collection of fabric books for inspiration then dig through the SLH upholstery fabric collection to find the perfect pieces to construct the cover and inside pages of your book.

Session 2 –Carrie will help each student get their photos/images onto fabric using the provided Transfer Artist Paper and inkjet fabric sheets while students begin to plan the layout for their book.

Session 3 – Once we have photos in our book, it's time to add mementos and other embellishments to enhance the story in our books.

Session 4 – Stitch our pages together and bind the book.
