The Peachtree Handspinners Guild will meet Saturday, February 23, 2019, 1:00 to 4:30 pm in the fellowship hall of North Decatur Presbyterian Church (NDPC). The door will be open at 12:30 with the business meeting starting at 1:00.
The program will be presented by Leslie Bronson and Carol Hassell. Box and paper maker Claudia Lee, https://www.claudialeepaper.com/ taught an amazing Stitched Boxes workshop at SEFAA. Several folks from PHG took her workshop. We learned new ways to use some old fibers we already know and love. We created whimsical boxes made with gorgeous handmade cotton and hemp papers and stitched them with waxed linen and in some cases, handspun yarns.
Carol and Leslie were at the workshop and will give a presentation to the guild at our February meeting. We’ll discuss the class, Claudia’s amazing work and the basics of making a stitched paper box. We’ll have a PowerPoint presentation (thank you, Carol!) and show and tell. If you attended Claudia’s workshop, please bring your boxes for show and tell!
