The Aurora Colony Handspinner’s Guild would like to thank WeGO for a 2018 scholarship.
Our guild was able to have Galina Khmelva teach five classes over 3 days on Orenburg lace.
The funds were used to offset the cost allowing members to take half day classes for $30 and a full day class for $60. 24 students took 84 classes. The classes were:
Spinning the Orenburg Way
Plying Orenburg-Style
The Fundamentals of Orenburg Knitted Lace
Dimensional Stitches Russian/Estonian Style
The Perfect Edge – Knitted Lace Embellishments
Some of the techniques were a stretch but everyone enjoyed the classes and the guild president said, “She even made the Russian History lessons fun and engaging.”
Thank you to WeGO for helping us to put on this great event.
Sincerely,
Carrie Rohn
