i took traci bautista's 'big sac' workshop which was all about freestyle fabric painting and random sewing machine construction.
here it is in progress before being sewn up and a shot of traci talking about different fabric painting techniques


the next class was kristin steiner's 'tiny triptych of self-knowing' which is a work-in-progress still...
then i took dj pettitt's 'travelling chic' purse class. she taught the coolest technique using tar gel acrylic medium and iron heat to create a sealed collage.
sweetie pie dj, the kindest, most helpful teacher.

here's me and one part of the finished product from dj's class. i'm looking a little worn out at the end of day 3

all in all, it was an awesome, magical, & inspiring time; something i am glad i took the chance to try on my own. i'm defnitely planning to return next year...

I just loved the bag you made in class Kate! Are you loving it and using it? What a fun day that was. I loved brain storming with you on the altered bag process.
