Betty Busby: Multi Media Fiber

.summary h3{ color: #699548; } Description Multi Media Fiber June 15-19, 2027 Registration Opens Wednesday March 11, 2026 at 10am CST For several years Betty has been exploring the use of various non woven materials in her fiber art. They have been a wonderful addition to traditional fabrics, extending the range of expression that can be achieved. The class will include the use of non woven materials, ways to produce images with them, and methods to incorporate them to extend the range of expression that can be achieved with traditional fabrics. We will also explore the use of an electric cutting machine (Cameo) to cut the non wovens into finely tuned shapes. You will learn how to draw a pattern from scratch, put it into the cutter software, and adjust the settings on the machine to produce results that are useable in many applications. In addition, Betty has developed new ways of painting fabrics. Students can make samples using her methods and materials, and combine them with the non wovens as desired. Betty will be more than happy to assist students with making their own designs and patterns. The aim of the class is to give each student many exciting ideas to experiment with. The non woven that Betty uses and one yard of silk habotai are provided in the class. Additional materials will be available to purchase if supply allows.
