A Two-Day Workshop With Mary Lou Wiedman
Friday, September 19 and Saturday, September 20 ~ Fee: $130
She will be teaching “The House That Jack Built”.  This is a creativity class that Mary Lou is exploring with piecing and appliqué. Learn how Mary Lou pieces a large house, garage and other buildings into her background. Then once the quilt is pieced, she adds people and things in the windows, on the roofs tops in the sky and on the ground. Animals, flowers, cars, and fun characters make this quilts prize winners at shows. Mary Lou can help you make your neighborhood one that will please those lucky enough to see them.


A Three-Day Workshop With Jane Sassman
Monday, November 10, Tuesday, November 11, and Wednesday, 12 ~ Fee: $275
Workshop: SHAPE SHIFTING
We all have innate preferences for certain colors, shapes and proportions, as well as natural attractions to certain symbols, images and icons. In this class we will study photographs and slides of a variety of historic and ethnic decorative objects to help uncover some of the motifs and symbols which may have powerful personal resonance. For example, you may be drawn to Buddhist mandalas or Mexican milagros. You may be attracted to the design of an Inuit mask or the pattern from an Art Nouveau vase or the shape of an Egyptian chair. Each student will select historic motifs and images which they will manipulate and reinterpret into a unique statement in fabric and thread. By lifting an image from one time and place to another the student will begin to exercise the power to recognize their personal touch stones to imagination. The aim of the workshop is to nurture your intuitive skills. Students should have a desire to develop their own design language and unique visual symbols, plus an interest in the history of decorative design. Go to her Web site www.janesassaman.com to see more about this wonderful teacher and fabric designer.
