Just over two years ago, Tom and I hosted our very first Fabric Collage Live Online Class—five full days of teaching and learning, lots of fabric and lots of work getting done. It was more successful than we could have dared hope. At the end of this month of May, we will be hosting our ninth 5-day Live Online Class—whoo-hoo!—and there are two openings available. See info below if you think you may be interested in joining us, from wherever you are in the world.
For this week’s Throwback Thursday, we thought it would be a good time to revisit that first Live Online Class we ran in March of 2021. Marie Wood attended the class and created a portrait of her big ginger tiger (detail above). This post not only introduces you to Marie, but to all of the twelve students (and their fabric collage art) who signed up for this new way, and new world, of teaching. They worked hard this week and there’s some awesome work included. Enjoy.
In addition, Tom and I clearly describe the entire Live Online Class process. From pre-class coaching, to the use of breakout rooms, to how I give feedback. If you’ve been wondering how we could possibly teach fabric collage online—with the same successful results as an in-person class—you can read all about it. Fair warning, this is an extensive and comprehensive post—you may want to get comfy, and brew an entire pot of your cuppa-of-choice for this one. 😉
