This is a fun filled introduction to materials such as foil, painted Wonder-under, X-pandaprint, Angelina fibers and foil along with a variety of paints: transfer printing, textile paints, and Shiva Artist's Paintstiks. Students produce an inspiring series of samples, including an original piece of fabric jewelry.
