SUMMARY:Glorified Nine Patch
DESCRIPTION:This block will include sewing curves. The Acuquilt system includes match points in each piece that eases the challenge. You will create enough blocks for a table top or a lap quilt project of your choosing. 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:Shaker Cathead Basket
DESCRIPTION:The Shaker Community\, founded in New York\, is known for their design aesthetic\, combining form and function in simply elegant ways. This class introduces students to the Cathead base\, a Shaker classic. In this form\, a small\, square-base\, grows into a round basket\, at the diameter and height of the student’s choosing. This particular technique of weaving corners\, produces four “feet” upon which the basket rests. This creates a raised base on the inside of the basket\, allowing its contents to first fill the perimeter of the basket\, and then the center. Disbursing the weight of the basket contents\, first to the perimeter\, serves to prevent produce from becoming bruised\, and protects the center of the basket from wearing out. Students will weave a two-by-two twill pattern for both the base and the sides of the basket.

SUMMARY:Saori Scarf Weaving
DESCRIPTION: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.

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:Rings with Sterling Silver Metal Clay
DESCRIPTION:Sterling alloys in clay form are stronger than pure silver and easy to work with making it ideal for ring making.  It is possible to either purchase a .950 sterling clay or make a .960 clay (a 50/50 combination of pure silver clay and .925 sterling clay).  The emphasis in this class will be on making rings\, but you are also welcome to use some of your clay to make other items as well.  While this class is ideal for those with metal clay experience\, it is open to anyone with an interest in learning metal clay techniques for making rings with metal clay.

SUMMARY:Perfect Pictures Every Time
DESCRIPTION:Understanding photography basics is the key to taking control of your camera and knowing you got the shot when you were taking it.  If you would like to take your skill level from shooting in Auto to having full control over your camera\, this intensive class is for you! A step-by-step PowerPoint presentation helps teach the basic principles of photography including: camera options and set-up\, peripheral equipment\, image exposure and histograms\, and will touch on shooting for HDR and working with motion\, depth of field\, and composition.  The class is paced to allow time for questions and interaction\, with about half of the day in the classroom experimenting with the cameras\, and the other half spent in the field\, practicing camera techniques and shooting options.  A comprehensive handout will include all the major points covered in the presentation. While the class instruction is mostly landscape based\, these techniques and principles can be applied to all photographic situations.

SUMMARY:Stenciled Floorcloth
DESCRIPTION:Create your own floorcloth in either a traditional pattern\, arts and crafts style or a game board pattern using environmentally safe water-based paints and finishes. You will learn to cut a stencil\, choose a pattern and the odors of your choice. Several different techniques will be taught as well. The use of painted floor coverings or “Oyl cloths” dates to 14th century Europe. People coming to this country wanted to reproduce furnishings from back home. Since resources were limited\, worn sails from ships were painted and used to cover their floors. Floorcloths proved to be one of the most durable floorcoverings providing extra insulation on the floors of drafty homes. Create your own artful and durable floorcloth that will last for generations.
