Embroidery has long been used as a form of self-expression. Works often incorporate symbols which are important to the creator. Come spend an afternoon exploring this craft and creating a personal amulet bag of your own design to take home. You will make a small bag which can be worn or exhibited in your home. Materials will be provided but feel free to bring your own embellishments such as beads or threads. This class is appropriate to a wide variety of skill levels.

Support spindles require very little space to work, are portable, and can be spun virtually anywhere. They have a unique beauty and elegance in the fluidity of their spin. This workshop is designed to teach students how to spin using a support spindle while also familiarizing learners with the various types of spindles and how to choose one. Students will have the opportunity to try several spindles and will leave with a basic working knowledge of how they spin. All materials are provided.
