Create a Dream Theme Panel ...

★What is a Dream Theme Panel?

The Dream Rocket project would like to challenge you to ‘Dare to Dream’. To dream about your future and the future of our world through dream themes such as health, community, conservation, science, technology, space, peace, and so on. We would like you to use your selected Dream Theme to express, explore, and create your vision on your section of the wrap. We hope that you are able to express and learn through this creative collaboration.

How do I create a Dream Theme panel?

1. Pick A Dream Theme (See below)

2. Your Dream Theme Panel needs to be 2 feet x 2 feet, (0.60960 meters x 0.60960 meters)

3. Please finish the edges of your artwork, if you have the resources to do so.If not we will gladly finish the edges of your artwork when it arrives in the mail. Remember, that your artwork will be on public display and we would like to be in the best shape possible.

6. Can you see through your artwork?

If your artwork is on thin fabric, mostly white, and you can see through it, please just add an

extra layer so that when we hang your artwork we are not able to see through it.

7. Batting is not necessary

4. Examples of Materials That other participants have used so far...

Examples of Backer Materials: Canvas, Burlap, Cotton, Recycled Material, etc. (However backing is not required if you are crocheting, knitting, or weaving your panel.

Examples of Techniques: Painting, Collage, Weaving, Crochet, Quilting, Knitting, Stitching, Felting. You can invent your own technique, I have seen people whom print photographs on fabric, or even use laminating to put a collage together to create their panel.

Recyclable Examples: Trash Bags, Old Cassett Tape, Soda Labels, (all of which is soft and sewable).

Some examples of what Participants have used...Quilting, Applique, Maching Sewing, Painting, Stitching, Cotton, Digital Images cut and Sewn, Ribbon, Silk, Acrylic Paint, Plastic Tarp, Fabrics, Hand Sewing, Buttons, Beads, Dolls, Jute, Sharee, Handmade Fabric, Felt, Fusible Fibers, Water Proof Glue, Yarns, Nylon, and Polyester, Permenant Ink Markers, Commercial Cotton, Batik Cotton, Cotton Batting, Wonder Under, Misty Fuse, Angelina Fibers, Tayon Thread, All purpose Thread, Beads-Glass, Acrylic Paint, Free-Motion Quilting, Beading.
