Call the Gallery\, 392-9769\, to be added to the waiting list. \nGet to know the colourful bounty of Maritimes flora by working with fresh plants foraged by Natural Dyer Renata Britez.

Students will come away with an understanding of natural dyeing with fresh raw dye\, surface design techniques and leave with sample swatches in various sustainable fibres\, a finished silk scarf dyed with local colour as well as informational handouts on how to repeat the process at home with local plants. \n \nRenata Britez is a Textile Artist originally from Brazil and based in Fredericton NB. She is a graduate of the Textile Design Diploma program at the New Brunswick College of Craft & Design (NBCCD) and currently taking her Masters in Adult Ed at UNB. Her main interest falls in traditional printing methods and natural dyes. Renata’s work has been shown and sold across the Maritimes. She travels to teach textile workshops around the Region. In the last couple of years she taught in various festivals and events including the Nova Scotia Fibre Arts Festival\, Edventures NBCCD Workshop Series\, SJ Arts Centre and ALMAG. Renata’s goal is to explore and share traditional textile techniques using natural dyes and fibres. Learn more about Renata’s 2021 Artist in Residency and exhibit\, Naturalis\, with the Andrew & Laura McCain Art Gallery.

SUMMARY:Thread Painting Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Learn the basics of free motion embroidery or thread painting using your regular zigzag sewing machine. Lower the feed dogs and use your needle like a paint brush to create flowers\, leaves\, trees\, weeds\, ripples in water\, etc. You can spend the entire day perfecting your stitches or start a small landscape. Information on design will also be discussed. \nKathy Tidswell combines painting on fabric with free motion machine embroidery to produce thread painted works of art. She also blends innovative and traditional techniques to create unique wall quilts and original wearable art. Nature is a large influence on her work and she strives for realism. Her pieces have been juried into Canadian Quilters’ Association National Juried Shows (winning two awards)\, Grand National Juried Exhibitions\, Studio Art Quilt Associates regional shows and Ontario Network of Needleworkers Threadworks. Her work has been published nationally and internationally. Kathy teaches her methods throughout Canada and in Europe. In 2005\, she was awarded Canadian Quilters’ Association Teacher of the Year. \nCost $50 plus supplies \nSupply List \n\nZigzag sewing machine and its’ manual.\nDarning foot.\nNew machine embroidery needles 75/11 or 90/14 if you are using rayon embroidery threads. Metallic or metafil needles if you want to use metallic threads.\n7 inch to 10 inch slim (3/8″) wooden embroidery hoop. A regular hoop will NOT substitute. It is too wide to pass under the presser foot.

SUMMARY:Crazy Quilting
DESCRIPTION:Learn Victorian-style crazy quilting with Cat Candow. Piece together foundation fabric by hand\, and then explore embroidery techniques to create a heavily embellished piece of crazy quilt. \nSaturday\, March 26\, 9:30 am – 4 pm \nSunday\, March 27\, 1 – 4 pm \n$60 + bring own sewing scissors and any special fabrics you may want to incorporate \nCat Candow\n\n\n\n\nRaised in Germany under her grandmother’s sewing table\, Cat took her first stitches at age 3\, attempting to make pants for her Teddy. She learned to crochet and cross stitch around the same time as she learned to read and write\, but with much more enthusiasm. She came to Canada as an exchange student and stayed to study Fashion Design at NBCCD\, followed by three years in England\, making theater costumes and studying hat making. As a multi-media textile artist\, she loves to combine traditional techniques with up-cycled materials in unexpected ways and creating textures too tempting not to touch.
