Through lecture, demonstration and hands-on work, students will experience this historic craft while working on an 8 inch by 8 inch project.

Each kit includes a pre-printed design on backing, cut strips, instructions, a color photo and a hook for $35

A frame will be available for use during the class and students may purchase their frame at the end of the class. $45
