Fiber Arts

No weaving experience is necessary! Students will be making a traditional Rag Rug using recycled fabric strips. The looms are dressed and ready to go. All you need to do is bring your creative spirit and you will leave with a finished one-of-a-kind rug that you have designed and woven. Colors and choice of fabric vary from class to class depending on availability. The rug will be approximately 24" wide and can be up to 45" long.

Saori Weaving is a freestyle form of weaving. A weaving technique known as clasp weft will be used. The selection of yarns and color is the main attraction with this scarf, which will be completed with twisted fringe. The looms will be warped and ready to go. Hand spun art yarn created by the instructor is included in the material cost, as well as a selection of commercially spun yarn to balance the structure. If you knit or crochet there's a chance you have a stash of yarn that isn't enough for a project than you just can't part with. Bring it along to use or add to the collection of choices. This is a perfect stash busting project! The summer session will use yarns suitable for warmer weather.

This lap quilt is fast and easy and requires no quilting. Three layers of flannel are used to add warmth and color. The Acuquilt system does all the cutting for you. This lap quilt could be a memory quilt with the inclusion of bits of cloth from the clothing of a loved one. Perhaps clothes your child wore as a baby can be included, bringing back memories of their childhood. You could also fussy cut a flannel fabric with fun images and create an "eye spy" quilt. 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.
