Join Kate Colin for a paper crafting workshop inspired by the bold patterns and colour combinations of IKEA's fabrics.

During the class, you will use paper as a base material and learn some basic paper crafting techniques such as folding, weaving and collage which you can use to explore and interpret the textile patterns as you wish.

Suitable for all levels, we will focus on shape, colour, texture and 3D form and you will create several samples to take home.

All tools and materials will be provided but feel free to bring along your own papers and sketchbooks.
