The Silk Experience Classes

(Quilt Festival Houston 2009)

We list the Silk Experience schedule early in the year, sooner than the other Houston Festival classes are announced in mid summer. This gives our silk enthusiasts a chance to acquaint themselves with our classes and teachers for the Festival in 2008. We suggest you sign up for our classes the day you receive the Class Brochure for the Festival, our classes fill very fast.

Our teacher's e mail addresses are listed if you wish to contact them personally with questions you might have about the class supplies and the techniques and projects offered.
