Facility requirements for Jenny Bowker's 2-day class - Playing with kaleidoscopesPlease select File > Print from the
menu bar in your browser to print this requirement list. PhotocopiesI usually request that organisers set up the photocopying for this workshop as I have found that travelling by air with the amounts of paper it requires means I have to leave quilts at home! A workshop for fifteen people requires 420 sheets of paper without allowing for spares. If I am teaching it is several places it can mean a ridiculous amout of paper to carry. I have written the requirement list so that the students know that they need to pay an extra fee for this, but I have left the amount of the fee open as I know costs can vary from six cents to fifteen cents a sheet. I cover the costs of the class notes, but ask students to pay for the design sheets and foundation sheets. There are three design sheets - they need two of each - one to work on and one to take home undamaged so they can make further copies if they want them. I like to hand out twenty foundation sheets, on the understanding that they can photocopy more for themselves. It is also a good idea if the organiser has a few spares of each sheet available for sale. This means that they need six design sheets and twenty foundation sheets. I will cover the cost of the actual class notes - two pages - but if I am travelling a long way I ask that you also copy those for me. Other itemsThese are minimal for this workshop. I need a machine to demonstrate on if I am flying, and I prefer a Bernina. This is because I can then carry the bobbins loaded with prefered colours and thread, and can, if it is a recent one (150, 160, 170 153), use my own foot for a demonstration of free machine quilting. I can usually borrow one briefly from one of the students. You will need a few irons. Please let students know about start and finish
times, lunch arrangements and parking if this is relevant to your workshop. If you have any questions you can contact me: |
