Note to Workshop Chair:  Each student will need at least half a table, preferably their own table, and access to electricity.  We will need 2 extra tables for experimentation with paints and messy stuff, so you may want to bring a plastic tarp to protect the tables and/or rug. We will also need about 5 irons and ironing surfaces for the workshop.

Materials Fee:  I will bring Topstitching needles, Mistyfuse, foil & foil glue, Bonding Agent 007, painted Lite Steam a Seam II, Totally Stable, stencils & rubbings, Shiva Paintstiks, fabric paints, and some sheer fabrics, threads and fibers for use as needed. Supply fee $20.

Other Stuff You Need to Bring:  (Yes, you really need this stuff!)

• 10 or so small (10” x 12” or so) pieces of cotton prints, solids, batiks and dyed fabrics you don’t mind cutting up and experimenting with.  
• Bring one set (10” x 12”) of 4 coordinating fabrics for a project on cutwork.
  
• Bring some small pieces of sheer fabrics (tulle, laces, sheer ribbons, organzas, cheap polyester or silk scarves) that coordinate with one of the cotton base fabrics - that can be ripped up to create new fabric, along with a matching color of tulle, a little sparkly yarn and metallic thread in the same color.
