DESCRIPTION:A demonstration of weaving a large traditional English willow basket from start to finish \nCharlie will make a traditional large English willow basket from start to finish\, while pointing out the various techniques involved. At hand will be a selection of baskets exhibiting a variety of European willow techniques. \nThis demonstration doubles as a preparation for those who are interested in an upcoming two-day Willow Basket workshop at Fibershed Learning Center (December 3 & 4)\, so that attendees can gauge whether they are ready for the challenge of making a large willow basket. \nThe demonstration is limited to 18 attendees\, and will take place at the beautiful Fibershed Learning Center on Black Mountain Ranch near Point Reyes Station\, CA. (Address provided upon registration.) Weather permitting\, we will be sitting outdoors in a shaded area.

SUMMARY:Natural Palettes of Fall Color in West Marin with Sasha Duerr
DESCRIPTION:Join Sasha Duerr onsite at the Fibershed Learning Center on Black Mountain Ranch in Point Reyes Station for a day of exploring fall color and the natural palettes of seasonal color in Northern California. We will gather a variety of onsite ingredients\, then make and use natural dye baths with those ingredients and others. \nTogether we will create a local fall dye palette from a curated selection of gathered ingredients\, including weeds and food and flora waste.

SUMMARY:Meditation Hand-Work & The Elements & Principles of Design at slowfiber
DESCRIPTION:Meditation Hand-Work & The Elements & Principles of Design-Slow Stitching Becomes an Art Practice for Self Care\n\n\nDescription: \n\n\n\n\nMonthly Schedule: \n\nMay 26: Patterns & Shapes\nJune 24: Compliments & Line\nJuly 29: Monochrome & Harmony\nAugust 29: Form\, 3-D & Space\nSeptember 30: Texture & Repetition\nOctober 28: Balance & Color\nNovember 25: Contrast & Value\nDecember 30: Unity and Variety\n\nStitching as Meditation. Hmmm… well\, self-care is hot on the tongues of those who know best. I happen to know that incremental decision-making processes have a calming effect and then the language of stitching can come with the labels like relaxing and meditative. I include words like repetitive\, unifying\, balancing\, rhythmic. Well guess what? These words are also part of our universal design and art-language. I am crazy about how they speak to each other in my own slow-stitching practice. I believe there is a convergence here worth exploring together. \nWith this monthly gathering\, our work is not outcome-based. We will however use the elements and principles of design as meditation and design jumping-off points. Line\, Shape\, Color\, Form\, Space\, Texture\, Balance\, Rhythm\, Repetition\, Harmony\, Contrast\, and Unity. These are powerful words in design and in daily living. I believe we run the risk of going in to our weekend feeling refreshed and centered. I will encourage you to continue the process at home as well. \nYou will be provided with everything you need including a curated bundle of materials to work with which supports the element and/or principle of design for that evening. We will be working together but independently in the slowfiber classroom. Needles and threads are also provided. Simply bring yourself and perhaps a snack to share. I will have bottomless tea available. This is a non-judgmental and supportive environment and practice. I recommend you be able to stitch and thread a needle well. That is all. If you participate in all eight monthly offerings the finished outcome is enough to build a prayer flag-I am happy to do that with you as a reminder of your self care practice. \nThere is no refund for these events if you need to cancel. Please plan accordingly\, you are however welcome to give your spot away to a friend. \nI recommend- Slow Stitch by Claire Wellesley Smith\, a much-needed guide to adopting a less-is-more approach\, valuing quality over quantity\, and bringing a meaningful and thoughtful approach to textile practice. We will look at stitching thru the filter of fine art with this book. \nClaire Wellesley-Smith introduces a range of ways in which you can slow your textile work down\, including: \n\nUsing simple techniques inspired by traditional practice (including hand-stitch rhythms)\nReusing and re-inventing materials (reuse even old textile projects)\nLimiting your equipment\nMending revisited (practical and decorative techniques)\nProject ideas and resources that help towards making a more sustainable textile practice
