Leslie Charlton has been playing with textiles her entire life. From her little backyard studio in Regina she weaves, spins, knits, dyes, sews and practices textile surface design using slow stitching and hand printing processes. She holds an Applied Arts Diploma in Weaving and has studied textile-making techniques at workshops throughout North America. You can find her on Instagram and facebook as Ful Fibre. In this three session class, we will explore different materials, basic stitches and sources of inspiration to get you started on your slow stitching adventure.

 Supplies that you need to have on hand:

• scissors
• woven fabric at least 12" x 12" (denim, canvas or heavy quilting cotton)
• small sketchbook with coil binding (optional)
