Kay Stanis Workshop: Pansy Profusion



A warm spring morning, bright blue sky, pansies nod in the breeze. Their reflection is everywhere. The sun turns the nights rain to pools of gold. In our embroidery the warmth of the sun reflects in the gold metallics as you shade your pansy created in Japanese gold and soft twist silks. A ring of silk ribbon with beads brings the outer flowers and leaves to three-dimensional life.

You will learn to couch in pairs to fill a shape with Japanese gold. Making sharp turns with the gold threads will be stressed. We will use the ancient technique of Or Nué to shade the gold into the pansy “floating” in the gold. Ribbonwork with beads form the field of flowers around the perimeter.

This course will be held on Friday, Oct 7, 2011.  Green Bay Area members may sign up for the class now through January 30. A sign up coupon can be found in the September 2010 newsletter.
