My extremely crafty co-worker turned me onto what sounds like a very cool thing: Space to Create in Ballard. Their whole raison detre is to be a space where children and adults can take classes in arts and crafts, and to also be a space for people to work on their own projects.
Jen (the afore-mentioned ECC-W) just took a workshop Wednesday night from a woman named Leah Adams on creating hand-made felt cloth. I saw her finished products at work the morning after and they were stunning. Lots of potential for wall hangings, etc. Here's the link to the Space to Create website: http://www.spacetocreate.net/8422.html
I wish I had a photo of my ECC-W's felt fabrics, but the image above is from the Space to Create website. The workshops are really reasonable. Maybe we can get a posse to take one sometime.
Jackie is standing behind me right now, urging me to "exhort those seamsters to post already!" Really. No lie--she's making me type this. She's physically pushing each and every one of my phalanges to the keyboard.
Meanwhile, I seem to have lost my sock pattern...the terribly un-intuitive sock pattern that I couldn't possibly resurrect by memory. I'm hoping I've left it at work, but it's killing me that I can't make progress on my sock. Oy!
