Dear members, we are thinking of offering two new classes and asking for expressions of interest.

1.Kumi Himo braiding: A Japanese technique for the creation of decorative cords. You will learn the basic 16 cord braids (round, square and flat).

Participants will need to purchase 3 small discs from eBay sites which will be advised by Tutor (about 3 for $5.00) and they will need to prepay $30(non- refundable), for a small handbook, threads and fittings.

It is a course and not an ongoing group and attendance at week 1 will be essential. 

2. 

Oriental bindings are those used mainly in China and Japan.  They feature decorative sewing with flexible (rather than hard) covers and there is no gluing.

•  The students will need to purchase some tools and they will be advised by the tutor.

• Participants will need to prepay $35

• (non- refundable) for photocopied instructions for each binding, all the paper used and the thread.

It is a course and not an ongoing group and attendance at week 1 will be essential.

Please email Afroditi to express your interest at coordinator@whittleseau3a.org.au

Thank you
