Make Yarn! On a Spindle!

yarn with kristynLovely proprietor of Pleasurecraft, Kristyn Woodfine, is making a very special trip to our metropolis from the idyllic wilds of eastern Ontario to teach us to spin yarn! On a spindle!

We’ll be congregating at the Workroom (1340 Queen St. West) at 3pm on Sunday, February 28. The workshop will follow the regularly scheduled programming of Quilt Sunday.

Come learn & make!

Every 4th Sunday in Boise

We now have a standing Church of Craft date – on the 4th Sunday of every month at VaC. Some crafters have shown interest in getting together twice a month, perhaps at a different venue. Let’s talk about it!

Meanwhile, visit our facebook fanpage to learn more and RSVP for the January 24th event.

San Francisco Craftin’ it up in 2010!

Having a lovely, relaxing afternoon drawing & painting (watercolor).Hello and Happy New Year, urban crafters!

SF CoC took a brief hiatus over the holidays, as I sell at all the local craft fairs, so it’s a fun, but somewhat feverish time. Thankfully I got some fabulous relaxing downtime over Christmas and New Years, and now I’m refreshed and ready to host a fun craft day again!

Maybe one of your new year resolutions is to make time to create more? Well, Church of Craft is a great, safe space and fun place to do just that!

Please join us: Sunday, January 24th, 12-5pm

Citizen Space
425 2nd Street @ Harrison, #100
Entrance is easy – it’s on the ground floor, so simply enter through the large industrial garage door that will be wide open! It’s a nice big, bright space with lots of tables & chairs. Newcomers always welcome!!

Citizen Space is super easy to get to: A breeze to get to w/ public transportation (only 4 blocks from BART – yes!), or super easy to park, if you drive (downtown on Sunday = free meters).

CRAFT-ON, 12-5 pm: Bring your new or continuing craft projects to work on with your fellow crafters. As always, you can craft during the swap, come and go open house style (show up at any time, we’re there till 5, no matter what), and potluck snacks are optional.

If you have any questions at all, please leave a comment on this post, call or email the SF Church of Craft Coordinator (me), Willo at 415-505-5507.

Fight Moths with Craft!

So there seems to be a moth problem in this fair, yet chilly city and favorite sweaters and socks are breezier than they should be this time of year. Instead of scrapping them, mend them with the age old technique of darning!

The Toronto Church of Craft is hosting a darning workshop with wool connoisseur Becky Johnson. Bring in your old, your haggard, and your much loved woolens and learn how to make them wearable for another season of deep freeze.

We’ll be congregating at Heartbeat 960 – 960 Queen St. West (map) on Saturday, January 16 from 1pm to 4pm.

Drop on by, and mend! We’d love to see you out of hibernation!
