With this exciting process, you never know what beautiful patterns will be created until the paint is poured. We'll cover what types of paint and additives work best to create beautiful abstract art. This class is appropriate for any artistic skill level, from beginner to pro, who wants to learn this technique.

Learn basic crochet skills such as chaining, basic stitches, and then we'll use those stitches to create a dishcloth.  We'll learn crocheting in the round, increases and decreases by making a scrubby, and how to crochet  a dishtowel.  For the first class, you will need a basic set of crochet hooks size E-J or F-K or one size J hook and one ball of medium-weight 100% cotton year like "Sugar N' Cream".

Punch needle embroidery has deep roots in New England as women hooked rugs out of old clothing or yarn. We'll use a smaller embroidery punch needle and regular floss to make this cute ornament.  In second class, we will finish the ornament using fabric. Materials fee payable to instructor ($20) includes punch needle kit, floss, and finishing materials. You keep the kit.

Wrapping rocks in a quick, fun way to create a nature-based object of beauty.  The technique is based on ancient Japanese basket weaving. We have found it addicting to choose a smooth ocean rock and figure out the best way to embellish it with cane. Bring your own rock or choose from ours. Your rocks should easily fit into the palm of your hand. If you are patient, you can even wrap a tiny rock for a necklace. Materials fee of $5 payable to the instructor at class.

This fancy basket has a lot of features to make it really special.  Start with a twill base in two colors.  One color goes inside of the basket and the other on the outside which is also woven with patterns and curls. It requires more work than a regular basket, but is not extra difficult. It measures 8" x 15". Materials fee of $30 payable to the instructor at class.
