Design Play Date
The objective for Design Play Date is to generate designs. Mary Hogan will use a number of exercises to help you come up with ideas. Participants work quickly with pre-fused fabrics to make designs on background fabric. You will develop small compositions while playing with shape, color, repetition and variety. Students will focus on placemat-sized compositions (14″ x 18″) which can be used as is or put together into a larger piece.
