Description of Project:		Have you wanted to take a design class but were afraid? Have you told yourself that you just can't design? Are you afraid to take a design class because you might not know the language? Then this is your class! Learn the elements of design and apply these principles to the art of needlework. Whether or not you ever want to design your own pieces, you should know what constitutes a good design. This class will lead you to that end by starting at the very beginning of the language of design. You will be able to use everything you learn to improve and enhance your personal stitching. Although this is not a stitching class, it will be both lively and relevant.
