THE SOUND OF COLOUR: ANNUAL MEETING THEME CLASS
with Rhonda Kellett
The theme for the 2011 OHCG Annual in London is ‘The Sound of Colour’. While your left brain screams ‘What?’ your
right brain dreams ‘Wow! can colour have sound?’ Let’s take this concept and translate it into a work of fibre art.
Rhonda is a Certified OHCG Teacher. Her passion for color is infectious and she will motivate you to move your art to a
new level.

OPEN CLASS with Anne Boissinot
Have you ever wanted to hook a new pattern perhaps trying a different color palette or use some embellishment or
something a bit of a change from the usual? Well, then this might be the class for you. Anne is a rug hooking teacher qualified for over 35 years in both the U. S. as a McGown Teacher and a Canadian Certified Teacher.
