Class of September, 2007

Janice's long term project is to finish this cover and to use it on a family bible. Look at those perfect enamels! I'll update this photo when the book is done.

Pam Hewitt 9/07
Pam diligently planned her project and came out with a beautiful book.

Ronnie is working on her piece (with her poor sore arm)


Vera hammers her piece (everyone loved having their own work bench)


Janice is enameling


Llewellyn and Christine are great friends


Ronnie walked in with a design in her head and walked out with the finished dream. Her book features wooden covers, bezel-set stones, stamping, etching and sewing a chain stitch.


Llewellyn loves her book (and so do I!)


Ronnie sews her book


Janice's bright eyes and smile


Janice addresses the torch


Llewellyn Baker 9/07
Llewellyn brought stones with her and made bezels to fit.


Llewellyn has a great sense of humor


Pam looks like a pro in her OptiVisor and Vera is in the background soldering


Pam and Vera talk it over


Ronnie helped Llewellyn with a chain stitch while we all had smoothies. Yum!
