Rug Hooking - Medley of Colour by Marjorie Duizer.

These are actually food but I still had to share them. So very pretty.

You can’t come to us, so we are bringing the instructor to you! Marjorie Duizer has created beginner rug hooking kits and when you purchase one, you get a link to a prerecorded lesson with Marjorie herself! She will walk you through the steps of the project from start to finish and offer up some tips and tricks along the way. This kit is part of #HuronHygge. Winter is the perfect time to snuggle up in the comfort of your own home and learn a traditional Canadian art form.... Thanks to Huron County Economic Development for sponsoring the making of the video. You can purchase your kit here: https://factsblyth.ca/pro/rug-hooking-kits-marjorie-duizer/ See more

Crayola has expanded their Colors of the World series to include markers and pencil crayons. So thrilled to introduce these to my costume and fashion designer students and creative friends and families. Add some diversity to your art supplies!

It might be time to start working on next year’s Halloween Costume,,,

Kirk Dunn sent us another beautiful pair of wristers this week. They are perfect for the season but especially to commemorate this year when Saturn and Jupiter create the Christmas Star for us to see again. A once in a life time experience. A one of a kind pierce of knitting. Kirk is the talented artist who created the Knitting Pilgrim show and the Stitched Glass Tapestries.... You can find Kirk’s wristers in the gallery or online at https://factsblyth.ca/shop/ See more

We had our last session of the Saturday Threadheaders today. They each designed and created their own little Christmas sweater pins. So Sweet!

Sometimes you just hear about things too late but I am happy to know that this exhibit happened and that other museums are creating their own similar exhibits.

Christmas aprons and sweater pins a la Tuesday night Threadheaders. They have no fun at this class at all,,,
