This amazing sofa is made from cardboard, wooden spools

of a long rectangle is constructed from scrap cardboard. A pouch of
plastic pellets is inserted before the top is attached to weight the
structure. A short cardboard back covered in fabric is attached after
the spool legs and shish kabob skewer spacers are placed at the bottom
of the sofa. Great outcome using simple shapes and assembly methods.
You can decide on a theme or color and fabric choices for this item.
The pattern will be mailed to you prior to class. To save precious

Pattern
Fee: $11.00
This is a fabric doll with wired fingers, a simple but effective bust line. The
figure is achieved by using a template method. The figure is assembled, posed,
and then painted with acrylic paint. A crackle finish is applied to give the
appearance of an old painting. Paint, pigma pen and colored pencil will give
the face a sense of depth. A variety of papers will be adhered in layers to the
body. A sculptural method of cutting and forming a series of components with
paper and wire will be cut and formed using paper, glue and file folders. This
figure and process gives you an opportunity to create a very individual and unique
doll. The pattern will be mailed to you prior
to class. To save precious class time, you must do the sewing homework.
