Throughout this fun course, you will learn how to make stuffed toys but with a primitive folk art vibe.
The main focus will be on a ginger cat complete with a dress. Time permitting you will also make some smaller painted cats which are perfect for Halloween.
During the 7-week term, you will learn basic sewing and toy stuffing techniques as well as how to paint faces, and how to use tea and coffee stain for that aged country look.
