A wealth of colours is available for fabric creations as well as in wool and other textile materials. Sometimes you would like to pick the right colour combination, often it is the nuances that distinguish an exciting colour concept from a more normal one. How do I find good colour combinations? How do I create my own colour universes? What possibilities are there for translating ideas and themes into colour? What is the icing on the cake in colour design? In the course methods and possibilities are shown how to select, combine and apply colours for personal projects.

Patients with dementia and the elderly are often very restless. So-called "nest blankets" offer these people intensive tactile stimuli and calm them down. At the Uster Hospital, such blankets are used in everyday nursing care and patients can take them home if they wish. They are sewn by members of the volunteer team.
The colourful patchwork blankets, similar to quilted blankets, are made of different fabrics and materials and are decorated with ribbons, buttons, bags and so on. Depending on the design of the blankets, the surfaces can trigger beautiful memories and give pleasure - and thus facilitate the stay in the hospital.

Contents of the workshop
- Project phases from the initial idea to implementation
- Cooperation with volunteers and implementation in the "professional" world
- Different possibilities of surface design of nested ceilings

There are more ways than one to get to the same end result, and reverse
applique can also be an alternative to sewing curves! Not only that, but
combined with simple piecing techniques, or even pieced blocks, can add
even more interest to a project.
Reverse applique is an exciting sewing technique in which the applique
shape is cut from a top layer of fabric, and the raw edges are turned under
and finished to reveal a layer of fabric underneath. Don’t throw those fabric
cut-outs just yet! I’ll also share with you some creative projects to make with
those leftover snippits – every good quilter loves to put all those little scraps to use!
This method uses the spray starch applique method and is finished by a
straight or invisible stitch - which means NO raw edges and NO hand sewing!

Tilleke Schwarz (The Netherlands) stitches visually poetic “maps of modern life”. In her engagement with contemporary life, her work is reminiscent of graffiti. But unlike graffiti her work is hand embroidered with very fine stitches and lovely colors.
Tilleke includes in her work anything that amazes, moves, or intrigues her. Daily life, mass media, traditional stitched samplers, and cats are major sources of inspiration. The result is a humorous reflection on our modern society in textile form. Her work is a mixture of her singular personality, a fine graphic sensibility, and a bit of fooling around.
In this lecture Tilleke will focus on her life and art. Sources of inspiration and favoured techniques (including couching, cross stitch and appliqué) will come together as this renowned artist interprets the world through stitch and thread.
