I have whimsical dolls from the following people:
Micki 2
Linda 2
Fran 1
Liz 2
Lynn 1
Maryann Thompson
Dotte 1
To bring
1. Frame
If you choose to frame one of the above dolls, you will need some kind of wood, 10 x 12 picture frame. If you choose to frame something different, you will need to determine your own frame size. I would suggest working fairly small, not bigger than 18 x 20 or so, as we will have to work carefully to have counter working space.
2. stainless steel straight pins
3. Grrrip glue or something similar.
4. Needle and thread - to match whatever you will be sewing on. I will have a great deal to share, but if you require something special, bring it.
5. Masking tape
6. Utility knife tool and several sharp blades
7. Gen. sewing items - scissors, tape measure, etc.
I will have lots of mat boards in various colors, and if you find something you like, that's fine. You might wish to bring fabric, however, for your shadow box, or some of the beautiful craft papers that are out on the market. Or maybe you'll think of something even more wonderful like paverpohl or cardboard or upholstery fabric or.... I will also have foam core, and a cutting surface, as well as various paints, laces, etc. If you're thinking of doing another doll or 3-D item, don't get something too heavy. We will be building the "box" out of foam core and it won't be suitable for anything really heavy. Bring your own trinkets, photos, knick knacks, clay pieces, small flowered things, shells, or whatever you're considering and we'll find a way to arrange it. Last year Marion brought lace and several antique dolls. They made a beautiful arrangement in a shadow box. Sandy Leal brought lots of pieces she had made in previous classes, trinkets, beads, etc. Think like a scrapbook artist.
