Needleweaving taught by Ginger Sizemore in Kona Hawaii for Kona Fiber Hui March 16 and 23

Needleweaving in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii

Kona Fiber Hui
March 16 and 23 2002

We were fortunate enough to gather in Lorraine Jensen's beautiful lanai to learn the art of needleweaveing.  Students brought favorite beads and mementos along with colored threads to create their own crafted wearable art necklace.   We all had a fantastic time.  Check this page again because more pictures of completed works are still coming in.
