Brooch Workshop - Short Video Tutorial

Free tutorial

Learn how to create a quick and easy brooch using fabric sculpting techniques.

This quick tutorial is a brilliant introduction to fabric sculpting and the dry brushing colouring technique.

It is a session that I often offer as a taster session at events and it is wonderful seeing the faces of those who take part as they realise the possibilities of this technique.
