Goldwork class, second session

The Guild made another foray to north Jersey yesterday for our second goldwork class.  And watch this space: there may be a return visit in the fall, just now being arranged.

Meanwhile, here we are at work yesterday

And some of our work in progress

Then there's the work of our teacher and other experts

We came home with many ideas and the materials to execute them, including real gold thread and gold kid, items very difficult for us to find usually.  Carol is a wonderful teacher, encouraging, very skilled, willing to demo any technique and is altogether great company. Can't wait to go back in the fall.

Readers, if you want to join us for adventures like this, and for regular quiet meetings, too, be in touch at the email address shown in our header.  Our general first Sunday of the month general meetings resume in September, but our weekly Wednesday evening stitch ins continue throughout the summer, and you're welcome to come and join us.
