New Saturday Classes:

Twined False Embroidery Pouch
                     with Sue Marvin
Saturday, June 7, 9:30-4:30 at the PNNAG office

This basket is woven with narrow cedar bark spokes and Northwest sweetgrass twining.  We will use wool yarn in a variety of colors and a  technique called false embroidery to weave in a figural pattern on the  basket.  The basket has a false braid rim and is embellished with cedar  cordage.  The class sample is approximately 2"x 2-1/2".  Students should be able to finish this size in class.  Those who choose may make a larger size, roughly 4 1/4"x 5" with the  understanding that they will finish outside of class time.  The teacher will  bring graphed designs or you may choose to work up your own design ahead  of time.

Class fee: $32.00 members, $37.00 non-members.
Kit fee: small size $16.00,  large size $20.00
Kit fee to be paid to the instructor during class.

Flat Pattern Making
                 with Gloria Young
Saturday, May 3,  10:00 to 3:00 at the PNNAG office

Flat pattern making is the process of using a basic pattern made out of tag board (called a sloper) to create clothing patterns of one's own design. In this class, students will use a quarter scale sloper to learn a few of the fundamentals of pivoting and converting darts, and adding seam lines and yokes
 to create new design lines in a bodice. Class is limited to eight students, so sign up early!

Class fee:  $30 for members; $35 for non-members and a $2 kit fee to be paid to the instructor during class.            

For members, registration forms are in the newsletter.  Others may request registration  information by calling (206)282-2666.
