Classes
Saturday, April 20: Intro to Spoon Carving with Charlie Downs
This hands-on, entry-level workshop will provide participants an immersion into the world of greenwood spoon carving. During the four hour class you'll learn basic knife safety, proper knife grips, and carving techniques, along with thoughts on drying, finishing, and decorating. In the end, you'll walk out with your very own hand carved, edge-finished spoon (almost) ready to stir and/or serve.
Tuesdays starting April 23: Sew a Pajama Set with Megan Avery
Join us for our next sewing class to make your own Pajama Set. The Pattern company Closet Core Patterns describes their pattern as a way to "Elevate your lounging and sleeping game... featuring tailored details with a slouchy fit, they look just as good in bed as they do glammed up and on the town."
Saturday April 27: Intro to Chicken Scratch Embroidery with Kate Leaver
Learn to embroider on gingham. This workshop will teach students the fundamentals of Chicken Scratch Embroidery: a version of cross stitch that gives the impression of appliqued lace.
