In this class we will explore marbling on fabrics. This technique originated in Turkey and was originally used on paper. We will spend much of the day creating samples on different fabrics exploring color and pattern options. These could be used in many other applications. We will also complete one silk scarf per person. Come prepared to experiment. This class is open to all levels.
Supplies: Note-taking supplies, rubber gloves, plastic ziplock baggies, apron (optional). Wear old
clothes as things can get a little messy.
