Become a part of the energy  and creativity of Jumpers and Jazz and join an art workshop. 

Kath Wilkinson

In this workshop we will create a unique and luscious piece of fabric by using a variety of methods to decorate and add colour to the background, then embroidering details according to a design plan.  . We will experiment with different sources of indigenous colouring agents and discuss ways of collecting and extracting them.  Leaf printing will be used to create borders and patterns, and embroidery to compliment and highlight the marks and patterns on the fabric.
