Supplies Students to Bring:
- Choose an 8″ x 1 O” photo of your favorite pet or animal. You might want to crop this to a close up of the face and reprint at 8 x 1 O”. An image that has good contrast and fills the page works best.
- Bring 2 color copies and one in black and white ( on regular paper). If you are unsure bring a couple of options.
- A variety of fabrics to match the colors in the photo but you wont need large pieces. Plains, small prints, textures, batiks and adding some unusual color/ patterns will add interest to the quilt. Small pieces or scraps will work great and sharing is encouraged.
- You are welcome to work in a bright, abstract color scheme. Bring range of values; light, medium and dark.
- Scissors, sharp and good for cutting small pieces of fabric. I like the Karen Kay Buckley 6″ scissors.
- Fabric glue. I use Aleenes Tacky glue but school glue or other fabric glues work works also.
- Tool for applying glue like a toothpick. I have them for sale for $1
- Sharpie “Fine” not extra Fine
- Chalk pencil or similar fabric marking tools, pencil and ball-point pen work. I like the Bohin Chalk pencil.
- Optional: Light box and tweezers
- Jane’s kit includes Pellon stabilizer, batting and a 10″ x 10″ art canvas frame to cover.
