A week of fun & life-long learning at the library...

The past week has been busy...lots of programs.  We started off learning about stained glass and soldering at a Saturday morning workshop at my library branch.  Jean Barr did a wonderful job of explaining the process and allowing us to try our hand at soldering.  I found that I could have used an extra hand...

Tuesday afternoon was our final session of a Water*Paper*Paint class taught by Connie Walts.  We all enjoyed playing with color and using different techniques.

Wednesday--silk scarf tie-dyeing with Sharpie markers and alcohol.  Big fun at West branch. 

Thursday evening---bookbinding at Central Library, featuring Kimberly Jones of Serendipity Vintage Studio.  We selected a "discard" book, pulled out the book block, and inserted sketch paper in place of the old book pages.  The books were then re-bound using a Japanese stab stitch.  I love bookmaking!
