SUMMARY:Community Textile Art Workshop Machine Based Textile Manipulation with Lilia Cass
DESCRIPTION:oin textile artist Lilia Cass for a unique collaborative textile art project exploring the creative potential of reclaimed bridal silk. Using off-cuts collected from the Lilia Cass studio\, participants will learn a range of fabric manipulation and textile art techniques while creating an individual artwork that will become part of a larger collaborative installation.\nThis project is not about creating a finished product to take home. Instead\, participants will contribute to a shared artwork that will be displayed at the RE:Stitched Runway Fashion Show\, helping to start conversations about textile waste\, sustainability\, creativity\, and the value of materials often overlooked or discarded. Working with beautiful silk fabrics of varying weights and textures\, participants will explore techniques including gathering\, pleating\, rosette-making\, patchworking\, surface cording\, and hand-finishing. The final installation will combine all participant artworks into a large suspended textile piece accompanied by video documentation exploring the journey from off-cut to artwork.\nNo previous sewing experience is required\, although basic familiarity with a sewing machine may help with Workshop One.\nParticipants will receive complimentary entry to the Stitched Runway Fashion Show\, where the finished collaborative artwork will be unveiled.\nWorkshop One – Gathered Forms & Machine Manipulation (2–3 hours): Technique Demonstrations– Gather bias-fabric strips down the centre to create the surface design– Gathering along edge for rosettes (Hand finishing required)– Pleating and texture creation– Demonstration of bias cording (optional)\nWhen: Saturday July 4th\,10am – 12pmWhere: Envirohub – 31B Glasgow Street\, TaurangaTickets: $10 (or go to both workshops for $15 – see ticket booking link for more info)\nLimited spaces – be sure to book well in advance :
