SUMMARY:Sharpening and Honing Blades
DESCRIPTION:Sharpening and honing of blades is a mystery to most people these days although our ancestors knew the skill intimately. Technology of honing has definitely improved over the past 100 years and there are many technologies to choose from. Howard will demystify the sharpening process and you will leave the workshop with the skills to sharpen your own blades. Students should bring one or two blades to hone for the class.

SUMMARY:Finishing Touches for the Handweaver
DESCRIPTION:Many handwoven patterns look best with traditional hemstitching. Four styles of hemstitching will be taught in this class. A technique known as overcasting adds a classic look to towels and table runners. The techniques you learn can be used on future projects for both floor loom and rigid heddle looms.

SUMMARY:Hunter Star
DESCRIPTION:This block shines as a two-color quilt or becomes quite playful when designed as a scrappy quilt. You will create enough blocks to construct a 40? x 40? lap quilt\, wall hanging or table topper. The blocks created in the block party classes will be cut using the Acuquilt cutting system. This system improves accuracy in cutting and reduces the stress on your hands often felt while cutting large amounts of small units of fabric for the quilt blocks.

SUMMARY:Basic Shaker Oval Boxes
DESCRIPTION:One of the most iconic items of Shaker woodworking\, nesting oval boxes share elegance\, simplicity and functionality equally. Using carefully prepared thin strips of wood each participant will carve the “swallowtails” of “fingers” on one end before soaking them in a hot water bath to soften for bending. Copper tacks are installed to hold the oval hoop together before top and bottom boards are fit and held by wooden pegs. Each student will construct five nesting oval boxes from cherry wood in this two-day workshop. This class is open to all experience levels\, no woodworking experience required!

SUMMARY:Nordic-Baltic Pick Up Band Weaving
DESCRIPTION:Whether you are an experienced weaver or just a beginner\, pick-up band weaving on the inkle loom is a portable\, satisfying\, and surprisingly easy way to create elaborate patterns with minimal equipment. The pick-up technique is used in many weaving traditions\, and the finished products can be made into bookmarks\, dog leashes\, instrument and purse straps\, and belts. We will focus on traditional Nordic and Baltic pick-up weaving using linen and wool threads. We will begin by getting familiar with the inkle loom\, practicing the basic weaving technique\, and learning how to read a pattern\, and then we will start working on our projects. Depending on how quickly you weave\, you may create a couple of bookmarks or a longer strap that can be used for a bag\, camera\, or musical instrument. On the second day\, we will go over warping the inkle loom so that you have the skills you need to do it on your own later.

SUMMARY:Seasonal Wild Tending
DESCRIPTION:In days gone by\, it was common practice for people living in wild places to tend the land which provided them with food\, medicine\, and shelter. It was a daily exchange of life between human and the natural world. In this introductory series\, we will explore the natural world and discover ways to more fully engage with her as she moves through each of the four seasons. In each class we will: create an outdoor (temporary) medicine wheel in order to deepen our understanding of the cyclical nature of all life: plants\, people\, animal/insect. We will also engage with/forage the plants which are available to us as we seasonally and learn how to transform what they have to offer into something we can use\, aka beneficial preparations. This class will be balanced with time outdoors for Wild Tending and indoors for hands-on practice of preparation techniques and extraction methods. Each class stands on it’s own. Together they create a synergy of seasonal attunement aligning your wild nature with the natural world around you.
