Here are some pictures from the workshop held Saturday at the studio. Heather Gordon taught Tessellations to a very well received audience. I can't wait to see all the projects hooked.
Tessellations are geometric patterns created by repeated designed without gaps or overlapping motifs. The students worked on a fantasy "Rainbow Village" design. The students learned to:
- Create their own tessellation templates
- Modify the design for different types of projects (chair pad, wall hanging or floor mat configuration
- Transfer the pattern to your backing
- Colour plan for different effects

A portion of the proceeds went go to the RHGNL
