Our first camp of summer is in full swing and we are having a blast!!! We already have lots of finished projects:
We also have weaving and crochet happening in camp. Students really do get to choose their form of fiber art!
Class on Monday was super fun and full of creative energy!
Our beading/jewelry making station is still seeing lots of action! I love what these students are making!
Isn’t this narwhal amazing?! I love that creative eye!
We are weaving up a storm. This scarf is almost finished! It will come off the loom next Monday.
The studio is always a hive of creative energy. Everyone choosing their own projects and bringing them to life! For me, there is no better job to have or place to be!
Today was such a blast in class! Students were working on all kinds of different things!
Weaving with pick up sticks!
These two were…
working on cross stitch projects!
Attaching a zipper.
Knitting – one student is starting a scarf, the other is starting a doll.
This student is cutting out fabric for a tiered and ruffled skirt. She altered an existing pattern in order to make it the way she wants.
This student is cutting fabric for a patchwork binding on a blanket. I love that I am able to have each student make whatever they wish!!
Well, I can’t believe that summer camps are done. I have thoroughly enjoyed teaching summer camp and our campers have been fabulous! This past week we had sewing camp and there were so many good things that were made:
Clothing!
Hairbands and scrunchies!
Lots of bags and a hanging organizer!
Letters, a mobile and a pompom!
Lots and lots of stuffies!
We had a fantastic time! Now it’s on to our fall schedule which starts the week of August 20th. I can’t wait to see what creative goodness is made in our classes!
Last week was super fun!! We had a knitting and crochet camp in the morning and a sewing camp in the afternoon. AND of course there was weaving!
We made lots of crochet stuffed animals!
We made clothing!
We made wrist warmers – both knit and crochet!
A stuffed dog whose tummy was empty and had a zipper installed to become a pajama bag! All the idea of this student!
Lots and lots of weaving!
We made bags and back packs!
Quilted items!
More!
And more! Looking back at the week, I can’t believe how much we accomplished!!
Last week in sewing camp was such a blast!!! So many new skills were learned and so many projects were completed!
There were pincushions!
There were clothes: dresses, skirts and aprons! Oh, my!
There were bags and pouches galore!
Many, many stuffed animals!
There were weavings, hair scrunchies, and key rings! We had so much fun!! I can’t wait until next week!
