Is anyone else feeling that deep blue swirl of longing and love for Van Gogh these days? With the immersive exhibit currently on tour (certainly the art show of the decade) many of us are finding ourselves thinking of Vincent more often and wanting to express and explore his unique style. Join me in creating a hooked rug or punch needle ‘Starry Night’ of your own!
In ‘Hooking Your Starry Night’ you will begin hooking your own, personalized version of Vincent's most famous painting. You will receive the 20" x 15" pattern on either monk’s cloth (for punch needle) or linen (for hooking), a hoop, snippers, and a large pack of mixed fibers including wool, yarn, velvet, and novelty bling. Bring your punch needle or your rug hook. If you are a beginner, high quality hooks and punch needles will be available for sale in class for $15 each.
We will work together to put the first loops into your masterpiece. By the time the class ends your sky will be in full swirl and you will be set up with all the skills and confidence it will take to complete your Starry Night at home.
This class is great for beginners or experienced ruggers alike!
