Summer Song with Kay Stanis

Summer Song with Kay Stanis

2 Day Workshop - Thursday 9th & Friday 10th July

Summertime and the meadow nods to the music in the breeze of a warm afternoon. The chicory flower is often seen as inspiration for the Romantic concept of the Blue Flower: which stands for desire, love, and the metaphysical striving for the infinite and unreachable. It was also believed to be able to open locked doors, according to European folklore. Queen Anne's Lace is so called  because the flower resembles lace; the red flower in the center represents a blood droplet from when Queen Anne, wife of James I, pricked herself with a needle while making the lace. 

Using the provided hand painted Congress Cloth, beads, silk and metal threads we will create an elegant memory of summer. We will be using a new composite thread: Gilt Sylke Twist.™ Bead   appliqué over Smyrna Cross, couching, and ribbonwork with goldwork are the techniques used to create the focal points. Come delight in the warmth of a sultry day. 

The design size is  6” X 9” design on a 12” X 14” background fabric.
