In collaboration with House of the Faun in downtown Port Townsend~
Together we will hand-sew a symbolic patch for the back of your coat using textile scraps I’ve collected and dyed over the years. An image of your beloved dog, a particular medicinal plant that makes you feel powerful, “ice out”, or an abstraction that plays with shape and color- you choose your message. We’ll explore how garment patches have been used in subcultures, in protest, in artful play, and as talismans of our belonging or membership throughout history.
Bring a beloved coat, sweatshirt, sweater, or vest that you want to adorn. Please bring your own scissors, snips, and needles that you like working with. Bring any special textile scraps, ribbons, buttons, threads or other bits that you wish to incorporate- however there will be supplies available to use up.
This class is best suited for folks that already have some basic stitching experience.
Space is limited, pre-registration is required.
