GSA 2018 ANNUAL MEETING & EXPOSITION

Guest Program

Seminars

Fiber Art

Sun., 4 Nov., 10 a.m., Penrose Guest Hospitality Suite
Each guest will select a variety of colors from a huge assortment
of wool fibers. These colorful wool fibers are pulled, by the
guest, into various shapes and dimensions, positioned on a back-
ing and ironed to fuse them into place. This creates a one-of-a-
kind piece of art that can be inserted into a cardboard frame to
create a card to send to a loved one or friend or taken home and
framed.
