Father
Christmas
Description 1 day class with Patt Blair
Using Patt’s
contour drawing of Father Christmas you will paint a pictorial Father Christmas Story
that is uniquely you or perhaps a person for which you may be creating this
piece as a gift. You will
use Tsukineko pigment inks to create your “Father Christmas ‘ The class is open to all skill levels
as Patt will present you with his happy face already on fabric so you can spend
your class time playing/adding to his hat and coat and background/foreground. click here to see the face painting I deliver to students for this class( Note:
The example quilted coat includes scenes from England, tea service, and sewing
memorabilia which uniquely represented the quilt recipient.)
