February 1st will be here in only three weeks!

Sievers Sneak Preview

February 6, 2018 By Carolyn Foss

The days are quickly approaching the February 1st opening of Registration Week.  It is such a treat for us to hear from you in the middle of winter, anticipating the time we’ll share when you’re here for class (or for an Island visit). We will be welcoming one new teacher in 2018, Susan Frame.  She will open our 40th season teaching Class 1 – Beginning Weaving on a 4-Harness Floor Loom.  Susan took her first weaving class in 1982 and has continued learning since, including three classes at Sievers ( in 1988, 1989 and 2012).  Since 1989, Susan has had the pleasure of teaching weaving techniques at The Fiber Garden in Black River Falls, WI.  She and her husband live in Osseo, WI.  Welcome, […]

It’s “Sievers” time again!

January 23, 2017 By Carolyn Foss

The 2017 calendars are almost ready to be turned to February, making us wonder, where did the time go?  I guess we can say that the days have been spent preparing this year’s Sievers schedule and getting all the class descriptions and information ready for February 1st and the opening of registration.  Featured on the cover of our flyers and brochures this year is a photo of the colorful and intricate Japanese Temari made by Judie Yamamoto. (Click here for 2017 Catalog) Many of the teachers who offered classes in 2016 will be back to teach in 2017.  Those on sabbatical this upcoming season are Lorrie Grainger Abdo, Janine Bajus, Betty Carlson, Mary Hettmansperger, Julie Lambert, Rich Prange and Connie Westbrook.  We welcome back Ruth […]
