LOOKIN' GOOD!
The loft is looking great with all the help I'm getting from daughter, Jeanette, her husband, Tom, and especially, Linda Germain, who has been climbing a tall ladder every other day for a week!
I've gotten some confirmations for my classes, but have to have at least 4 students to run them, so let me know if you need more information to join us!

WORKSHOPS - FALL 2014
WORKSHOPS WITH SANDRA GOLBERT in her Haverhill studio
CARDS AND BOXES - one-day class 8 students maximum
Give Hallmark some heavy competition with this card and gift box workshop! You can learn to make unique cards for every occasion, pop-ups, folded book cards and collage cards, as well as one-of-a-kind boxes for small gifts. Very simple to do using unusual papers, tape, stamps, punches, scissors and some glue (not to mention a great imagination!)
$35.00 pp Materials fee: $8.00
HAND-MADE PAPER - two day class 5 students maximum
Learn how to 'pull' sheets of paper as well as how to cast paper. This exciting workshop will unlock the magic that is paper-making! Be sure to bring an apron, preferably water-proof, and some pressed and dried flowers, leaves and grasses.
$70.00 pp Materials fee: $20.00 OCT. 18 & 19 - 1 TO 4 PM
BOOK IN A BOX - three day class 8 students maximum
In this class, we will create a wonderful book and its accompanying box. The accordion book may be any theme you wish, family, flowers, pets, poetry, and anything else your heart desires. It can celebrate a certain person and maybe be used as a gift for them. Bring anything you can find, pictures from magazines, text, old letters (bring photocopies, not originals) that will make your book special. Or….. no theme at all, just miscellaneous goodies we find. I will have hundreds of fun things to add to your book.
We will be collaging the box the first day, and making the book the next two days, so you will have time to find ideas (and 'stuff'!) of your own to include.
$55.00 pp Materials fee: $15.00 SEPT. 27, OCT. 4 & OCT. 11 - 1 TO 3:30
SILK-PAINTING - two day class 6 students maximum
Learn to paint on silk with cold water dyes that can be 'set' with just an iron. Working with water-soluble resist, silk fabric and beautiful dyes, we'll create colorful works of art. On the first day, we will practice with using resist and make a 'sampler' with all the methods of using the dyes. Then we will work on a design for the scarf you will be creating the following class.
You will take home a scarf of your own design as well as the wooden stretchers so you may continue to work at this great art!
$55.00 pp Materials fee: $25.00 SEPT. 20 & 21 - 1 TO 4 PM.
Workshops may be cancelled if there are too few applications.

MY BOOK, "BAD AS GOLD" IS OUT ON KINDLE!
This is so exciting for me. Little did I know that when Linda Germain suggested I join a group called NaNoWriMo to 'do some writing', that I would end up with an actual book.
Now I want to write another!
Take a look:
