19th: Advanced Repair Techniques, at Rhinebeck
While I love teaching all of my classes, I wanted to highlight a few.
Advanced Repair Techniques is a class I only get to teach at larger venues, which means I don’t get to offer it very often.  If you’ve taken Darn Those Knits, or another one of my mending classes, this is the perfect time to stretch those skills and dive into some truly neat stuff.  I’d love to see some of my Northeast friends and students, so you should check this class out!
I teach my Duct Tape Dress Form class in the DC area, and it always is a great class.  But at Rhinebeck I’m going to be able to teach an Extended Version.  This is going to be one of the few times I get to teach the Duct Tape Dress forms class, and then be able to launch right into ways to use your dress form.  It’s going to be incredibly valuable!
My Oops class is one of the classes where I get students to have some great ah-ha! moments.  Normally I teach the class in two hours, and I’m always feeling like we could have used just a little more time.  This class at Rhinebeck fits the bill.  We’ll get to go into a little more depth on how to fix mistakes, and students will get a little bit more time to “figure stuff out.”  Previous students have said of this class “I took it wanting to learn how to fix mistakes, but it was the little tips and tricks Jennifer threw in throughout the class that made it amazing.”  One of my students, finding the class so valuable, took it a second time after she had some time to digest what she learned the first time.  It really is just that valuable.
Finally, I want to point those of you from the Metro DC area to my String Theory classes, held through Montgomery College.  I got my start teaching knitting and crochet with children, and I’m so happy to return to teaching them again.  I love being able to pass my love of crafting to the next generation.  If you have a child in your life – a son or daughter, niece or nephew, next-door neighbor or student, I hope you point them toward this Camp.  It’s going to be incredibly fun, and many of the sessions are filling up quickly.  Nab a spot while there’s still some left!

Last thing, I promise!  If you’re looking for something to do on a weekend, be sure to check my class calendar.  You know I have one, right?  Take a look here!
