Knotting Class


I took a knotting class yesterday that was sponsored by the Fiber Artists of Oklahoma and taught by Stephanie Grubbs (she's the one standing in this photo). I have always admired Stephanie's work and I own one of her lapel pins that she made from knotting threads. I was curious about the technique so I took the class and now I have a greater appreciation than ever for her work! I would have to spend hours and hours practicing before I could make anything halfway presentable!
The other ladies (seated) pictured are from left to right are Karen, Collier, Marie Miller, Shirley Conaway, and Barbara Klein. I'm sitting next to Karen but you can only see my hand up in the air above her head.
The sample photo of knotting is something Stephanie is working on......it surely isn't my class project!
