New Class Starting

A New Class starts on Wednesday Oct 2, 2013  We will be concentrating on dye and paint
Below is the schedule and supplies needed.


PAINT AND DYE 

This session of classes will be an opportunity to review (for former students) and to learn new techniques (for new students ).  Each week I will bring either dyes or paints .   If it is a dye week both Acid and Procion will be there.  I have several colors that were ordered in the past so I want to bring some of those as well as our standards.
You may use them as you wish.  There may be suggestions for each week.

 I do not have enough paint for everyone so you may be asked to bring your own selection of colors.  I will have enough for sampling different paints, but not for you to do big projects.

WE WILL BE DOING  SHOW AND TELL  so bring what you are working on or what you finished over the summer.
