No-Sew Cartonnage
We're excited to offer a NEW and exciting craft called CARTONNAGE in this new monthly class series!

Certified teacher, Jane Compeau, is sharing her passion with us, and teaching you how to build and create beautiful, yet useful, boxes and books. Join us for our 2nd session, MEDIUM CIGAR BOX, and discover a new way to use your favorite obsession... FABRIC! No need to bring your sewing machine to this class!

| Instructor: | Jane Compeau |
| Instructor Bio: | This is more than Jane’s hobby—it is an obsession that she passionately shares with her students. She fell in love with this therapeutic process, and enjoys measuring, cutting, assembling, and decorating chip board with beautiful fabrics to create boxes, organizers, journals and restoring old books. One look at these boxes, and you can see she has a meticulous eye for precision and detail. Skills she’s going to pass on to you. She is a certified Cartonnage teacher, but this isn’t her only hobby! Jane is a master knitter and crocheter as well. She’s always creating! In the years I’ve known her, I often find her in action. Making beautifully intricate afghans, scarves and hats, and donating much of her work to keep those in need warm, and wrapped in a hug of her handi-work. |
