Essentials for dyeing workshops
(Each specific topic will have a short list of other classroom needs, which I will provide after the class is planned.)
Classroom: (no outdoor classes)
• Good lighting for all table spaces
• Surface design with dyes require room temperature(70°F) or above
Tables:
• for Ann, 3-5 for demo and supplies, depending on other counter space
• for participants, at least one 3’ X 5’ each and a chair
Wall space:
• for Ann, at least 20 linear feet of wall or other surface for samples
• for participants, approximately 4 linear feet
Water:
• minimum of 2 sinks with hot water, in or near the classroom
Essentials for design/quilt workshops
Classroom:
• Good lighting for all table spaces
• Electric outlets for all sewing machines and portable lights
• Two clean ironing boards and irons, some classes might need more
Tables:
• for Ann, 3-5 for demo and supplies, depending on other counter space
• for participants, at least one 3’ X 5’ each and a chair
Wall space:
• for Ann, at least 20 linear feet of wall or other surface for samples
• for participants, approximately 4 linear feet
Sewing Machine for Ann to use (if air travel is planned):
• Must do free motion straight and zig zag stitching with feed dogs down
• Must be in good repair, timing and tension checked recently
• Older model Bernina preferred
Media I have prepared slides for some of my design workshops. I require a digital set-up that will allow me to show a Powerpoint presentation from my USB flash drive, or that will allow use of my Mac laptop. The projector and the room lighting should provide for good viewing quality of the images.
Supplies for workshops When Ann provides dyes, fabric, handouts and/or special tools for use in class, a materials fee will be assessed for each student. In most classes, students need only bring things such as paper towels, rubber gloves, simple tools, and plastic containers. Exact supply lists and materials fees will be determined when the class is arranged. Alternative arrangements can be made for supplies, depending on the venue and availability. For classes outside the United States, availability of supplies will be researched for each class and arrangements will be made to have everything, either purchased locally or shipped to the class.
