Shibori textile artist Annabel Wilson offers workshops and courses from various venues in the South West where you can have a fun day exploring your creativity.
You can take fabrics home that you have stitched, tied, pleated and dyed with the option of creating a larger piece for a bag or cushion cover. Or if you are a quilter or card maker you will want to make many smaller pieces to add that something special to your quilts or cards.
Class sizes are kept small, 4 to 8 people at a time ensuring that you get lots of individual attention.
