sprung!

GaleZucker_Part2
Anyone else feel like they've been in a holding pattern for a coupla months? Well, I'm busting out. First course of action:
NEW CLASSES  PHOTOGRAPHY FOR KNITTERS
I'll be listing a bunch of them, but for starters
• the "my own backyard"  day workshop May 15th, 10:30-4:30 at Knit New Haven in Connecticut, info and signup here
Fiber College in Searsport Maine, September 8-11th, you must go check out the classes. Seriously cool, like  knitting with Mary Jane Mucklestone , dyeing with natural materials, spinning, woodworking,  hooping (!)  and of course, photography with moi. I'm teaching 3 separate classes. This is the first time I'll be offering a more advanced lighting class, in which we'll get all geeky over adding artificial light sources into the mix.

More dates, locations & classes will be up soon. Class size is always limited to keep it personal, so don't hesitate too long if these appeal.
OK, now I have to go outside . Did I mention it's spring ??!!!!!

More like years, but whatever.

Yay!

I'm so jealous. I totally live on the wrong coast.

Fiber College looks like a blast. It's not a great time for me, unfortunately. I want to take your big class!

While we're having an amazingly spring-like day, it's mostly keeping itself busy melting snow...
Your classes sound fabulous! Please post lots of pictures. (I love the idea of picture-taking of picture-taking.)

Will you be coming to Interweave Knit's knitting event in San Mateo, Ca. this Fall? Or anywhere else in California? I would love to take a class with you.

Ariana just filmed an interview for her documentary, and said, thanks to your workshop, she was bouncing light and using reflectors and had a much better eye. So people should know that your classes go beyond fibers!

Delurking to say that I love reading your blog and seeing your beeuteeful photos. And, I really want to make one of those crazy crowns shown in your last post. My grand-daughter would love it. is there a pattern?

Hi Carol, The crown is by fiber artist Owen Sea Luckey. All her pieces are one-of-a-kind fine art--you can see more here

Very inspiring! She has an amazing touch with the materials and shaping & felting/partial felting.
