<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The last time Bjornsborg (San Antonio, for those who don't know) hosted a Fiber Arts College was back in '98 or 2000 or so. I'd like to see another one, and why not here again? I'm looking into the costs of a site with several class rooms and a central room to gather in.</FONT></DIV></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My idea is classes, no lunch provided - bring a lunch or go offsite to get it, more classes, after classes maybe a potluck dinner and spin/weave/fiber-in, either on site or at someone's house. Just sitting around talking fiber, working on projects and eating supper. Go home.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My question is, is there enough interest to go forward with this? Is there enough interest for people to say they will attend, not just that it's a good idea? For the one place I've gotten prices, we would need to have at least 35 people, at $10 site. I'm continuing to look for another site.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The date I'm looking at is June 23.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Some class ideas:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Spinning-related classes:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Period Fibers - info about flax, nettle, cotton, silk, metallics, how to prepare and use them</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Period Breeds - who, when, where (Debroa, I'm looking at you : ) )</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Making award insignia (Iris, Centurion, Star, Falcon, ). Making hangers for medallions.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Dyeing - I don't know if the site can accomodate this, but if so, that's another whole section of classes. Info on period uses, hands-on dyeing with different dyes, kermes and lac vs cochineal, woad vs indigo, etc.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
