Kate Findlay - Magical lanterns

Create a beautiful lantern with Kate Findlay

Berkshire artist Kate Findlay can't think of anything she likes doing more than starting with an idea, and developing it through the use of colour and composition until it becomes a new work of art.
In this one-day workshop with Kate you will use transfer paints and Lutradur to create a decorative surface.  You will then embellish the surface with beautiful gauzes and sheer fabrics, combined with stitching as desired to create a unique lantern.

​What makes this project really different and special is the use of LED components (which can change colour!)  and Kate will show you how to hand sew circuitry into the lantern.
​
Whether you are a beginner or have plenty of experience this workshop is suitable for anyone interested in working creatively with fabric, thread,  and paint.
​Scrumptious biscuits with your morning coffee, a light seasonal lunch and a 'naughty, but nice' cake with a pot of afternoon tea.  All this and a day being creative in the company of like minded people, what's not to like?  ​
Please note: Places are limited and are available on a first come, first served basis; to secure your place please ensure that your workshop fee is paid at the time of booking.
