SUMMARY:Barn Quilt
DESCRIPTION:Barn quilts have become so popular over the past several years that there are barn quilt trails all over the country. We’ve even seen billboards on the NY thruway advertising a trail! These art projects are a great way to commemorate a special time in your life or an upcoming holiday. You might have such fun that you’ll want to make several like past students. During the class you’ll learn some of the history and then learn how to plot out your design after you have chosen one from the many designs on offer. There are so many patterns and the best part is you don’t need any quilting experience. Bring a friend and have some fun. Wear old clothes and bring a smock or apron\, students may wish to bring a hair dryer if they have one.

SUMMARY:Carving Comfort Birds
DESCRIPTION:In the winter of 2023-24 Bob Goldberg came to AFS with an idea. While receiving treatment for cancer\, he couldn’t help but think of others in those treatment rooms who didn’t have the same kind of support he did. He proposed a program to create “comfort birds” to donate to local hospitals to provide a little bit of care to those who need it most. Created by woodworker Frank Foust in 1982\, comfort birds are small enough to fit in the palm of the hand and sanded to a silky-smooth finish to serve as a touchstone during hard times. In honor of the man who inspired them\, we’ve renamed our iteration of the project “Bob’s Birds.” In this workshop\, create your own comfort bird to gift to a loved one or to keep as a touchstone for yourself!
