Instructor: longtime professional costume maker anf LAVA member A. Laura Brody, currently working with Nickelodeon and Disney XDTV. Ask Laura about class details at https://www.dreamsbymachine.com or at laurabrody@verizon.net.
Staple draping is a fun but practical technique for creating clothing, slipcovers, sculpture, car covers- anything made from fabric. No special skills are needed to start and the tools are easy to use. We’ll use our fellow students to create art right on the body. You will come away from the class with a real-world skill you’ll use again and again. Staple draping isn’t permanent. That’s why we’ll take your staple draping and turn it into a pattern to use with any fabric you like. In the last class, we’ll staple drape furniture.
