Experimental Appliqués

Explore the art of appliques and reverse appliques with Maya Ronchetti, a seasoned natural dyer and textile artist, in this hands-on workshop. Join us for a focused day course where Maya will guide you through the technique of creating interesting surface textures and a patchwork/collage effect for a decorative cushion cover. While the primary focus is on cushions, the skills learned can be applied to tapestries, wall hangings, and clothing.

Maya will provide all necessary equipment, including bonda-web and a selection of fabrics, ensuring a practical and tactile experience. Throughout the workshop, you'll learn the ins and outs of appliques, reverse appliques, and hand embroidery techniques. Maya encourages individual expression, steering away from replicating designs to help you discover your unique style.

Leave the workshop with a personalized cushion cover and the knowledge to apply these techniques to your future textile projects. Join Maya Ronchetti for a day of skill-building and creative exploration in the world of appliques and reverse appliques.
