Advanced Rope Bowl Shapes Class

In this class, you will learn various techniques/tips to create new bowl shapes beyond the circle or oval!

These new techniques will open the door to being able to make geometric shapes like triangles, squares, and rectangles. You will also be able to sew other shapes like hearts, figure 8s, or crosses — and ultimately be able to design some of your own simple bowl shapes. Dog bone bowl anyone?

We will be working with smaller size bowls to allow you to complete more techniques in class and feed your passion for new rope-based things.

**Prerequisite: MUST have previous experience sewing rope. This is NOT an introductory class.

Note: This class encourages a “sample piece” mentality to be able to try more techniques and shapes. Things like fabric-wrapping the rope and adding decorative stitching will slow down the creation process during class time. You may need to complete the project at home if you need a little extra time on a starting/shaping technique or on preparing a fancier end result.

Recommended: Using variegated thread in class is a nice middle ground between plain rope and a fancy fabric-wrapped end result. Decorative stitching can be added to the sides after completion, depending on the ending technique and initial thread used for construction of the piece.
