Spend one relaxing Saturday making something beautiful with other creative women.

No experience needed.

This is one of my favorite workshops because everyone leaves amazed at what they made. My goal is simple: every student leaves proud of what they created.~Carol

 

Who I Am:

Hi, I’m Carol Ann Webster— One of my favorite moments is watching someone who begins the day saying, "I'm not artistic," hold up a finished piece they're excited to take home.

That's why I teach.

In this workshop, I'll guide you through each step so you can relax, enjoy the process, and leave with a beautiful cyanotype keepsake you'll be proud to display.

My goal is simple: I want every student to leave feeling successful and excited to keep creating.

If you have any questions, just send me an email at carol(at)carolannwebster.com—I’d be happy to hear from you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to bring supplies?

No. Everything you'll need is provided.

I've never made a cyanotype before.

Perfect. I'll guide you through each step.

Do I need to know how to machine sew?

No. I'll have sewing machines available and can help you if you're unfamiliar with them.

Will I finish my project?

Yes. The workshop is designed so you'll leave with a completed piece.

Can beginners take this class?

If you're comfortable with basic hand stitching, you'll do fine.

Why tea bags?
Tea bag paper is surprisingly strong after it's treated and creates wonderfully detailed cyanotype prints. Once stitched into fabric, it becomes a beautiful surface for mixed-media art. It’s like a blend of paper and fabric.
