December 2022/January 2023：Craft Club Social
Sessions will be held online (no in-person option)
Dec 7 (Wednesday): Sewing Lover Seminar!
Instructor (volunteer): Annu Johnson
Two pieces of sewing work from your leftover material!
①~Earphone/Cord Holder~
A fun and refreshing sewing activity about making various shapes for different purposes.
Even if it just by hands, it is nothing hard but only attaching snap buttons!
②Room Fragrance Tetrapod
Cute Christmas tree ornament.
With such a small size, you can hang it on the rear-view mirror in your car and enjoy it with your favourite smell.
Dec 21 (Wednesday): Knitting Lover Seminar!
Instructor (volunteer): Kaneko Nakahara
Let’s enjoy Christmas goods knitting and New Year’s decorations!
Why not we make some Santa’s boots, Christmas wreaths & ornaments, and New Year’s decorations such as Kagamimochi (mirror-shaped rice cakes) and rabbits for the Chinese zodiac?
Even if it is slightly misshapen, your handmade would be the warmest gift to your family and friends.
Jan 4, 2023(Wednesday): Sewing Lover Seminar!
Instructor (volunteer): Annu Johnson
The first craft of the year is a little elegant that improves your teatime.
“A three-dimensional small leaf coaster!”
Ordinary square and round coasters are fine, but why don’t we change the mood to a three-dimensional leaf coaster?
It might make you feel warm and cozy in the cold winter.
Jan 18, 2023 (Wednesday): Knitting Lover Seminar!
Instructor (volunteer): Kaneko Nakahara
So, for whom shall we knit our first art of the New Year?
“Let’s knit some winter accessories!”
Why not make something for yourself or your family with your own hands such as hats, scarves, leg warmers, etc.?
The best part of knitting is that even first-timers can complete it with relative ease.
Even if the design is the same, it will never be the same with different knitting hands.
Let’s create the one and only knitted work of art in the world this year.
