Katie has visited us before with her Japanese Tea Ceremony and Kimono dressing, so this time we had a fascinating talk and slide show of her visits to Japan where she attends various workshops to learn new crafts including silk screen printing, weaving, paper making and many others.
After lunch and under Katie’s guidance we learnt to make Kimekomi Baubles – something none of our members had tried before and they really are stunning as these pictures show – Katie’s samples -hopefully ours will be on show at the January meeting.
We discovered that we had 3 ‘families’ represented amongst our membership on the day – 2 mothers with their daughters and a trio of granddad, daughter and granddaughter – nice to see families working together and passing on skills.
