Africana

I am fascinated with deep, bright, rich colours. This colour palette caught my eye while watching a program about Africa. So much colour for the soul! I immediately went to my threads and pulled all the rich colours. Then with canvas in hand I began this journey. My African trip in colour and thread!

“Africana” incorporates string art, needlepoint and laid fillings stitches. The overall design integrates many different stitches including Jessicas, Rhodes Hearts, a variety of Waffles and Amadeus Motifs. Techniques include Diaper Patterns, and Laid Fillings. This class will appeal to those students who would like to try new techniques while challenging themselves by mastering complex canvaswork stitches.

This piece is stitched on 18 count Ecru mono canvas. Skill Level: Intermediate Advanced. This is 3 or 4 day class.
