18th October 2012 "Creative with Strip Cloth" Workshop with Magie Relph
For centuries, all over West Africa, people have spun cotton and woven
it into long, narrow strips, before sewing the strips together to create whole
wearing cloths, blankets and traditional garments.
We'll start with plain undyed, as well as indigo patterned strip cloth,
then experiment with a variety of patterning, appliqué, stitching and
embellishing techniques to make a small wall-hanging, bag or book cover.
