Crafts Class offers the opportunity for creative expression as well as community-building conversation. The class teaches students how to make useful and beautiful items that can be given as gifts or kept and enjoyed. This month the projects included: Box Cutting Tool (for making yarn scarf), Castle Scarves, Kitchen Towels and Coasters.
Instructor Shirley Yu reported: “Mrs. Tsa Tran told me that the coasters are so beautiful, she won’t use them and will try to save them for her grandkids as an heirloom. The group made some for ESL Bingo prizes—they were on the table and everyone seemed so delighted. Castle scarves are also very popular; students cannot stop making them. I’ve lost count of how many pieces I’ve helped them to finish!”
