Learn the Art of Flower Pounding
Tuesday, October 12, 2021 or Saturday, October 16
9:30 - 12:30 pm
Flower pounding is a wonderful technique using live flowers and foliage to make an impression of a floral design on fabric. The natural dyes in the plant material are literally pounded into fabric that has been prepared for dying. Students learn how to use a variety of flowers to make a unique design that can be finished for a wall hanging or framed. Students will also learn how to create impressions on card stock and water color paper, how to copy a flower or design onto iron-on transfers and how to scan pounded images to the computer and create designs using a print shop program to make other projects. Cost for this class is $40 (payment may be made in person at store or by telephone and must be received by October 5, 2021. Most supplies will be provided. Students will need to provide a small paring knife, lightweight hammer, old bath towel, a black, fine-point Pigma-type pen. You may also bring flowers and foliage from you garden but we will also have a collection of plants to use.
