Next year I will be teaching at Studio Preniac in France for the first time. For those of you who live much further away here is your chance to join me in a beautiful location. Here is the description and contact Studio Preniac to book HERE. The course is more than half full already even though it is a year away so get on with it if you fancy it! Mandy Pattullo: 12th - 19th September 2020: Textile Collage with Many Pattullo. Again, one of the UK’s most popular textile artists and tutors, Mandy Pattullo will bring a series of her most popular courses to Studio Preniac in September 2020 which combine her love of vintage fabrics with observations of the natural world. You will start the week with an introduction to the basic techniques of textile collage before starting a more structured approach with a focus on building up a bird portrait on to a fragment of antique quilt. . We then turn a bit botanical using the seed heads that are around the Preniac as an inspiration for a Seed Heads piece. You will learn to layer up and appliqué backgrounds for your compositions and will use embroidery stitches imaginatively to describe the structure and silhouette of these remains of the summer. Mandy will do many demonstrations through out the week and bring inspirational samples, clear instructions and templates for those who can not draw (!) but she will also remain flexible And if you choose to just remain with one style of working rather than having a go at everything that is fine with her. You can see more of Mandy's work, just follow the link below: See Mandy's Website. This will be Mandy's first to Studio Préniac.

Molas are a form of reverse applique using many layers of fabric. In a later lesson we will sew simple molas out of layers of felt. In the mean time let's make one out of construction paper so that we can better understand the reverse applique process. First, choose an image that inspires you. Choose a design with simple colorful shapes. Flowers, birds, fish and suns all work well as mola designs. Next create a simple line drawing. Notice how wide the feet are? You will need to cut out your design so make sure to compose it of bold simple shapes that you can easily cut. Create a simple cut out pattern without any detail. When you are done cutting flip the pattern over. Does it look like a recognizable image or just a blob? If it isn't immediately recognizable you need to go back and do a more precise job cutting. Here are the layers of my mola design: The top layer is yellow with a bird shaped hole cut out of the middle. Whenever I need to cut a hole out from the middle of a paper, I pinch the paper and make a tiny cut on the fold. Then I open the paper, stick the scissors in the hole and continue cutting. Pointy scissors can fit into smaller holes than blunt tipped scissors, allowing for more precise cutting. Now lets begin to put the design together: Layer 1 layer 1 and 2 layer 1, 2 and 3 All four layers together Have some fun with your mola by adding some pattern cut outs to layers 2 and 3. For more extensive information on molas visit http://www.molaartandcraft.com/ Learn about the Kuna people of Panama by clicking here. Learn more about this art form by clicking here The most common mola motifs are; birds, fish, animals and flowers. I have created some simplified patterns based on common images from real molas. Feel free to download or print them or use them as inspiration for your own ideas. Start with a simple design of three layers. You can always increase the complexity and detail of a paper mola design by adding more layers of color. Paper molas make beautiful cards and framed pictures. You can sew or glue simple molas using felt. Felt is a good material for children to use because you do not have to worry about the edges fraying. Kuna women use light weight cotton fabric to make molas. They cut a fringe along the fabric opening and tuck the edges of material underneath to create a clean design. The hallmark of good mola craftsmanship is that you appreciate the image before you notice the materials used to create it. This is true no mater what media you use. Sloppy stitching, visible glue, loose threads or ripped paper all detract from the quality of the design. Nancy Walkup, the editor of School Arts Magazine, writes about using Mola designs as a vehicle to teach big ideas to children: http://www.slideshare.net/mobile/nwalkup/teaching-with-big-ideas
