What’s a Fiberella studio program like? Paula’s Retreats offer as much freedom or structure as desired at every level. You can follow along, sure footed, building your way to increased confidence. When the urge strikes, off-track to exploration. Then return to learning fresh techniques & design concepts, selecting from suggested exercises. Private art coaching is available when desired. Just ask. :-)
You’ll have access to resources from all of Paula’s Workshops at every level. Select the combination of resources most useful in developing your work. Occasional group gatherings enhance learning, enriching the experience for all. New textile friends emerge! Join us...
  
Which Creative Machine level should I take? ALL levels connect machine needle felting to personal textile goals. Whatever your passion... quilts, garments or textile sketchbooks... whether you prefer abstraction, imagery &/ or recreating the landscape... you’ll learn new techniques and find out how to develop design ideas into strong creative works to call your own.
For those who have taken Level I.... Level II & Level III will be offered in autumn 2010. If it’s been a while since you took Level I... join in again. Many new techniques are now included. While exploring you can listen in as a refresher; and tune in for what’s new.
Level I All techniques from the 2 day Create Embellishment with beginning composition & mini projects Level I MINI Your choice: all techniques as above with some design; balance of select techniques with design; focus on design & a few techniques (Also a great way to review techniques while learning design if you’ve already attended a Level I retreat; or have taken classes with Paula before; or have machine felting experience).
