Fabric Framework Collage Class with Seth Apter
Fabric Framework Collage Class with Seth Apter
Saturday, September 27, 2025 | 1pm - 4pm
At the crossroads of fiber art and mixed media you will find Fabric Framework – a three-hour workshop for all creatives. The idea for this class came from my desire to use my FreeSpirit fabric collections to honor the amazingness of quilters through the voice of a mixed media artist. And to hang the result on the wall.
We will use and combine the basic building blocks of quilting – fabric, batting, and thread – with the basic ingredients of mixed media assemblage – embellishments of your choosing. We begin by making my version of padded quilt blocks. Putting these together much like a puzzle, each participant will create a project nested within a shadow box frame layered with dimensional
objects, stitching, fabric, and more.
Perfect for quilters who are looking for a way to add dimensional, mixed media elements to their practice, for mixed media makers who want to bring fabric into their work – even if they have never quilted or hand-sewn, and for everybody in between.
