Workshop on the Web Taster

Workshop on the Web is a quarterly publication that is only available on the internet. It features the very best tutors from all points of the compass, with step-by-step workshops showing details of techniques. These include hand and machine stitching, surface decoration, innovation in all its forms and make a point of showing how to work with new materials. Mixed media and paper arts are also included.

After this introductory issue, the workshop articles and the reviews will be password controlled. Your subscription brings you the password. A subscription costs only £15.50 (British pounds) for a whole year. (Click the subscribe now button for equivalents in other currencies.) Each issue (there are four each year) has at least seven complete workshops and an interview, in addition to the features listed above.
