Spring Classes - Star Stitch (again) & Light It Up! Paper Fireflies

The next round of classes at Two Hands Paperie has begun, and the full class list sure is exciting! I might just finally get around to taking Mia's Pajaki class like I say I'm going to every time. 

I'll be teaching the Star Stitch Binding class again, as it was met with such enthusiasm last Fall. As of today, there are only 2 spots left, so if you are at all interested you'd better sign up! The Fall class was so fun, this really is a satisfying project. Everyone's books turned out so great.

Here's a couple photos of the books we made in class.

Star Stitch Binding Class - Sunday February 8th 11-5

The other class I will be teaching is a continuation of the Light It Up! series we've been offering, using Lilypad Arduino sewable electronic technology. This project is just so fun because... well, who doesn't like twinkling lights? We will paper-collage a firefly environment to fit inside a large mason jar. And then we'll stitch up little LED lights with conductive thread and make it all glow. The LilyTwinkle Arduino board gives the whole thing magic and flash.

I love fireflies. We don't have them here in Colorado, but this way I can just make my own.
