Inspiring Workshop

I just spent an amazing two days in a fibre art workshop with teacher and artist Lorraine Roy. I am inspired in so many ways by viewing her art work and listening to her teach. Please take some time to view her web site and see her unique and beautiful pieces.

Below are samples of the work I completed during the work shop using her technique of combining snippets of fabric under fine netting and stitching all the pieces in place. It is like painting in fibre and was a lot of fun. I'm sure I will be incorporating this technique into future pieces... and I'm looking forward to spending time in my studio soon to get to work.

Thanks to Lorraine for a great learning experience!
