January 27, Handwoven Potholder Workshop
Did you weave potholders on a loom when you were a kid? Take a class at the Sedona Heritage Museum on Monday, January 27th, 11:00 am – 1:00 pm and learn how to do a bigger, better potholder, or even make one for the first time! Easy and fun! You will be guided by an experienced potholder maker and museum volunteer whose finished potholders are a popular item sold in our gift shop.
Best of all, you will go home with a finished woven potholder made and designed by YOU! You will also take home the metal loom, tools and enough remaining loops to make a second potholder. Additional loops as well as pattern and design books are readily available online and direct from manufacturers and retailers. These potholders are flexible, washable, durable and can be used on pots and lids, or even as pretty trivets for hot dishes on the table.
Cost of class is $15.00 and includes all material and supplies as described. Register for the class by calling the museum at (928) 282-7038 as soon possible, as class size is limited.
