What started out as to be show and tell for some textile students at St Peters........ to help out my hockey friend Karen.... I ended up teaching the girls how to make rings out of vintage kimono silk.
The year 9 and 10 girls are currently desigining projects with an Asain theme and I had designed (but not published yet) an asain theme quilt... my friend Karen asked me to come and give her textile students some tips and tricks for applique and some how to information.
On preparing for the lesson I thought I would bring the ring findings, fabric etc to make the kimono rings... knowing they would not take long to make....... and we all like to, at times, have a quick finishing project..... I have posted a blog about these... they were great to make....
Well the girls loved them....... I was very chuffed.... AND tadah..... here are what the girls made for their class..... I think they were a bit happy....
And they did a great job!!!
I just loved sharing the knowledge with them...
I will be returning to their class in a couple of weeks to help them with their Asain projects... woo hoo....
cheers janeene
