Studio Sunday (on a Monday)

Posted on September 12, 2016 by sproutspress

It seems that I’m spending many Sundays in other people’s studios these days. And yesterday was no exception. I was over at Graven Feather teaching a lovely group the Longstitch/Linkstitch binding and the results were beautiful!

I have a few more classes scheduled for the fall, be sure to check my Workshops page to see them all. Who knows, maybe you’ll start that handmade holiday gift in September this year! Or maybe taking a class and learning a new skill is the perfect, unique gift for the person who has everything.

Arrow Stitch in August

Posted on August 9, 2016 by sproutspress

After a brief hiatus while we take some much needed time off to rest and rejuvenate, it’s time to start offering Bookbinding Workshops again!

First up is the Hard Cover Arrow Stitch Journal! I really like this class because you not only learn the binding, but how to make a hard cover as well. If you’ve dabbled in bookbinding at all, you’ll know how valuable a skill this is!!

What: Hard Cover Arrow Stitch Workshop
When: August 21, 1pm – 4pm
