Create your own fabric landscape at this weekend retreat with Kate Findlay
Wild Gardens with Kate Findlay
Your inspiration will be gardens, and the wonderful haphazard effect of herbaceous borders in bloom. Kate will guide you through a range of processes including block printing, stencil cutting, sponging and other mark making to build up a rich background. On top of this, you will then add raw-edge fabric pieces cut into flower and leaf shapes to really bring your wild garden picture to life, finishing with free motion embroidery and embellishment by hand.
