Greenville SC Open Studios
Fiber Collage Workshop at Little House Art Studios, SC.
Location: Little House Art Studios
Event Description:
Susan Sorrell's Fabric Collage workshop is developed from the tradition of quilting and adding the creativity of art.
Taking scraps of fabric, appliqué, threads, beads and embellishments to open up a whole new world of possibilities for self-expression. Fabric collage can lend itself to be abstract, naive, complex or childlike. Designs can come from popular culture, sayings, songs, or stories.
This workshop is for all levels, and no sewing machine is required. Fabrics can be used clothing or bought from a store. Needle and thread are used like drawing tools to add details and color to a piece of fabric. Beads and embellishments make the piece glimmer and three-dimensional. There is no right or wrong way to do it, be experimental and make it as complex or easy as you wish. Think of it as a miniature quilt that has had “glamour" make over!!! The funkier...the better! You don't need any sewing skills; this is about expressing yourself with cloth!!!
All Levels, designed for the beginner

First Internet Video
You GO GIRL! That rocks!
Susan,
How long have I been taking your classes? . . . I would say at least
three years! What a kick to hear your voice. I know you're Southern, but
for some reason I was surprised to hear your wonderful Southern accent.
But then, I would have a California accent if you heard me, wouldn't you?
It must have been weird for you to work in those colors. Please don't
change your color schemes permanently. I love your colors!!!!
Hugs!
Caroline
Hi Susan Love the video a great way to see and hear you in action. Did
you have the radio on or something in the background as i could hear
another voice. OMG Im hearing voices lol no I really could hear something
else just thought you might like to know if you do another and i hope you
will...like a whole class a whole day class lol for us Aussie gals who love
your work. Im doing one of your classes as soon as my new job allows me
too. Fabulous work smiles Michelle
I know I should have turned off the TV when I was recording, but I did it
on a whim and didn't think of the background noise or the background. Like
I said, this is all new to me, so hopefully the future ones will have that
Star Wars look. :)
Great job on the video
Hi Susan, i saw your note on the yahoo licensing eloop.
LOVE LOVE LOVE your embroideries! i make crazy quilts and embroideries too
and am working on licensing them. i have been selling some for apparel
textile designs.
More later (i've put you on my favorite list).
oh yeah, and i liked hearing your southern voice as well. made me feel
nostalgic. i grew up in Tennessee but have living in NYC and NJ for a long
long time now!
