    Beginner to intermediate; no prior sewing experience is necessary

    Make your own soft sculpture doll inspired by yourself, a friend, or a loved one! Taught by contemporary artist Mary Fortuna, you will use a variety of muslin, fabric, and yarns to make your special doll. Students will be encouraged to use fabrics or trims that have a personal significance or add a personal flair. This class will use primarily hand stitching and a limited amount of machine stitching for those more comfortable with that method and dependent on individual skill level.

    • Students can bring photos of their subject that they're making the doll after
    • All materials are included.
