Zoom Workshop: Ghost Images of the Orient, with Pat Archibald

Many of Pat’s quilts feature ‘ghosts’: translucent images of people or boats. Learn in easy stages how to create by machine a translucent image of a Dhow sailing away into the setting sun using layers of nets, sheers and foils.

As well as her ‘ghost images’ technique, Pat will cover various stitching techniques besides gilding and foiling. Pat will also guide students on how to develop their own ‘ghosts’ in order to develop the technique afterwards.

A kit is supplied for this class (approx £20), with a choice of background colour. This workshop is suitable for students who are comfortable with machine sewing.

Students will be very close to finishing their piece by the end of the session.
