Designer, Marjolaine Walker will show several projects made by monoprinting with a gel press. Monoprinting is a form of printmaking that has images or lines that can only be made once, unlike most printmaking. The gel plates eliminate the need to use a press. Walker owns Twelve Stones Scrapbooking. Designer and crafter, Barbara Crawford will show how to make pin cushions that are large enough for a cutting table or dashboard. Hand embroidery and pins are used to decorate them, and they are stuffed with crushed walnut shells to add weight and to keep the pins and needles sharp. Her company is Crawford Designs. Author, Peter Goodman has written a children's book and will discuss the steps parents and teachers can take to protect children from bullying and self-blame while building resilience. His business is DreamBIG.
