The first of the month and a new, fresh page on the calendar makes us realize that time will go by quickly as we approach February 1, 2018 and registration week at Sievers.
Our schedule of classes is not set yet, but it will be soon. Many of the instructors that have been teaching at Sievers will be returning. Some have decided to be on sabbatical in 2018 and return in a future year. They are: Judy Hasheider, Ruth Manning and Karen Tembreull. Retiring from teaching (but not from taking classes or making baskets) are Beginning Basket Weaving teachers Kay Normann and Drew Tibbetts.
Returning to Sievers in 2018 are: Betty Glynn Carlson (Navajo Weaving) Chad Alice Hagen (Sketchbooks and Miniature Book Necklaces), Mary Hettmansperger (Expressions in Jewelry) and Connie Westbrook (Simply Scandinavian Weaving).
Between a warm and fiery late November sunset and a cool December landscape,
we are getting ready for the February 1st reveal!

I saw a wonderful basketmaker at a fair near Geneva, Il. Her baskets were lovely. They were reed baskets. Many had ingenious attachments. If you would like her name and number, just let me know. She thought it would be wonderful to teach at Sievers. She presently teaches basketry. Happy December! Cheena
Carolyn Foss says
You can certainly give us her information. In general, our teachers are recommended to us by existing teachers, but we always keep a file of all recommendations. Happy December bird watching to you!

Carolyn Foss says
We do know that Carol will be back for another Knitting on Location class. We’ll share the finalized schedule on the blog in time for registration week starting February 1 (probably late January). Thanks for asking, Beth!
Mary says
When will the new server (and photos) be fully operational? I wanted to view some of the photos of the shop and housing but they do not load at this time. Thanks! Merry Christmas to all at Sievers.
Carolyn Foss says
Hi Mary, I don’t have an answer for you yet. What I will do is use the email you provided and send you directly some of the photos you are asking about. Thanks! Carolyn
