Jamie and Regina have conspired to bring this multi-media, nature inspired, three dimensional, wall art to Woodlanders. In this class you will assemble a freeform twig framework, and place your felted and coiled medallions, along with other natural contraband. We have quite a stash to choose from, but don’t let that stop you from bringing your own! Material fees include: wool roving, felting needles, pad, and holders, leather finger sleeves, coiling supplies, and full access to both Regina’s and Jamie’s natural treasure stash. (You will be required to make repetitive hand and wrist movements.)
Class size 12
Student Supply List Bring clippers for twigs and a scissors.

Jamie Rogness is a highly creative and versatile artist who works in a broad range of mediums, predominently using natural materials. She is a master woodcarver, working with both hand and power tools to create intricate sculptures from tree branches and exquisite designs on ostrich eggs. Her concrete leaf castings are beautifully realistic. She has taught a variety of classes at the annual Woodlanders Gathering at Shake Rag Alley for over 10 years, including handsome, handmade lampshades with a touch of nature.

Regina Riley taught herself to coil pine needle baskets 21 years ago. Since then she has always had a needle and thread in her hands. Coiling is just another form of sewing. She encourages students to use other natural materials, which is another reason for her enjoyment of this form of basketry. She has taught in Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, Ohio, and Missouri. Her latest interest in basketry is the Cherokee Double Wall style and the Oklahoma Cherokee Double Wall style. One of her first pine needle baskets is in the permanent collection at the Rountree Gallery in Platteville, Wisconsin.
