Construct a carousel by creating a series of “scenes” that operate like the pages of a book.
Learn how to measure and fold three accordions. Cut and collage/rubber stamps/ decorate the frames and inner pages. Then sew the three accordions together to complete the book. Once finished this book looks like five theater scenes from the side; from the top it look like a star. The form was popularized in the 1920’s and 1930’s as children’s books.
You may choose to purchase the bone folder, awl, and needle provided to you during class for an additional $10 on the day of class. Please also bring any collage materials, rubber stamps and stamp pads, drawing pens, or pencils you may have.
