TEACHER: Kevin LeMoine: Kevin was born and raised in small town Amherst, Nova Scotia and is now settled in Shemogue, New Brunswick. He started his arts path in his early teens with Oil Painting, to be followed by Tole Painting which he successfully taught for 5 years. After many forays in the Fiber Arts, including Punch Needle Embroidery, Cross Stitch, Needlepoint and Latch Hook, Kevin was introduced to Traditional Rug Hooking by his Mother. Kevin has evolved into Punch Needle Rug Hooking where he has found great peace and relaxation in using the Amy Oxford Punch Needle. He is a Certified Oxford Punch Needle Rug Hooking Instructor and is offering classes throughout the area and is excited to spread the joy of Punch Needle Rug Hooking. Kevin has recently opened his own studio, visit him at: www.punchneedlerughooking.ca
WORK SHOP: Prerequisite- Intermediate Punch Needle Experience
This Advanced workshop is designed for Punch Needle Rug Hookers that have already taken a beginners course and have punched on their own. It is designed for those Punchers who want to take their experience to the next level and learn new techniques to compliment their current knowledge. In this course we will use 3 different Oxford Punch Needles (#10 fine, #13 Mini & #14 Mini) to achieve dimension throughout the landscape and will be using a combination of 2 ply Wool Yarn and #3 cut Polar Fleece Strips..
KIT: Kevin is providing a kit costing $40.00 (included in total cost below). Includes 13”x13” Pattern on Monks Cloth and all required yarn and polar fleece to complete the project. Punching Frames and Oxford Punch Needles are not included, but will be available for purchase or use during the class.
