I had such a fantastic time at the Textile Art Festival in Brisbane. Not only was it a wonderful chance to do something just for me, but I learnt such fantastic techniques in the classes I attended. On Saturday I attended Screen Printing with Procion Dyes by Louise Snook. She was a wonderful presenter and had such fabulous things to show us. I came away all inspired to incorporate some procion dye screen printing in our next range.
Sunday was the immensely talented Ken Smith for Machine Embroidery. Never having done any before I was a little apprehensive but had such a fantastic time. Although a time consuming venture, I can't wait to try out a few sections on our next range of clothes.
A very brief chance passing of Jacinta Leishman's demonstration of felting also inspired the desire to try out some felting.
A big thank-you to all the presenters for being so patient with me and the lovely people who sat next to me and helped me out.
Now I just need some time to put all these wonderful new skills into practice!
