In-Person

4 sessions

Loss is entwined with the human condition. We will come together with artifacts of our loved ones and create a keepsake with them. Your creations may be practical or abstract, hand-sewn or glued, so no sewing is needed.

Some artifact examples: Textiles - shirts, hats, ties. Ephemera - photos, letters, papers.Suggested Possibilities: Functional - eyeglass case, fabric belt or scarf, bookmark, toss pillow cover. Non-functional - collage, wall hanging, shadow box. These are suggestions, your ideas are welcome.

Come to class with your artifacts and/or ephemera. In the first session we will discuss options and plan for materials you will need to bring to the remaining sessions for working on your keepsake.

Ann works with textiles to create abstract collages, a love she discovered in recent years after retiring from teaching, both in class and online. She has also dipped into the surprisingly magical art form of watercolor painting.
