Class description

 

Students will be making a small pine needle bowls using a variety of stitches. They will learn how to start a pine needle project using a cabochon mounted on a leather back, how to do some closed coiling, and how to add beads to their design. All levels are welcome but those with some pine needle weaving experience should be able to go home with a finished project. 

​

I will supply the center cabochon, pine needles, natural and dyed, beads, thread, sewing needles, and everything students need to complete the project with the exception of what is listed in the "what you need to bring" section below.

​

What you are required to bring

 

Small sharp scissors. (I have extras so don't buy new ones just for this class.)
