Sew your own Apple II ornament

Presented by Sarah Walkowiak. Pre-registration was required for this workshop, but everyone is welcome to spectate. Learn to stitch your own Apple IIe ornament as featured in the December 2012 issue of Juiced.GS! In this workshop you will be creating your own plastic canvas Apple IIe ornament in your choice of monitor color scheme: rainbow, green monochrome or amber monochrome.

This workshop will cover the basics of counting and cutting plastic canvas shapes, stitching techniques, reading sewing patterns, joining sides and edges of a box, and tips for the extra detail work, such as outlining the keyboard keys and attaching the cord for hanging. This session will also include some extra-special additions to the original pattern just for KansasFest!

This workshop will get you started on your ornament and teach you the techniques you need to create it. Based on the time constraints, it is not expected that you will finish your entire ornament in the workshop. However, you can continue to work on your ornament through the week, and Sarah will be available to answer questions in the hallway or via email etc.
Skill level: Beginner to novice, previous sewing experience not necessary but helpful.
