Workshop recordings for your pleasure at your leisure

Dear Everyone ~

Workshops are central to Bari Zaki Studio. Now that I teach group workshops via Zoom (as shown above), enthusiasts from around the globe are part of the BZS community. Students work in their own creative spaces, using the elaborate kit of materials delivered with each workshop registration. The workshop sessions are live recorded in their entirety, available to students almost instantly after the session concludes.

In the past year or so, several students have asked to purchase the recording of a group workshop they haven’t actually taken. I have been delighted to do this, and I want to make sure Everyone knows this “workshop mode” is available.

You can purchase the full-length recording on its own, or you can opt to schedule a private workshop with me via Zoom (in addition to receiving the recording). The recordings include the “natural pauses” from the original workshop sessions, which give you time to complete the various steps. It is possible to pause the video wherever and as often as you’d like, but you may not need to at all.

We’ve updated all of our previous group Zoom workshop listings to include pricing for these options. You’ll also find easy directions for scheduling.

We’ve also recently updated several palettes. Much mixing, matching & measuring, thanks to Ruby’s nimble fingers, her zeal for colour coordinating, and her zest for stitching.

For the workshop Triptych of Coptic-stitch binding (TCSB), Ruby has selected four beautiful seasonal palettes, which you can read about in the shop listing. (Seen here is Autumn.)

My 2020 workshop for Sonheim Creative’s Words and Pictures series was Loopy-link stitch booklets (LLSB). The kit for the workshop showcased lovely Saint-Armand 100% cotton papers…and I offered additional kits in several palettes. I still have a limited quantity of these papers in my reserves, eager to be of service. This kit will continue to be available in my online shop, independent of any workshop.

We have created four fresh palettes, each presenting two colours of paper and five colours of waxed linen thread, for you to enjoy mixing & matching. If you’re feeling lucky-go-loopy, we have also assembled a kit that includes all eight colours of Saint-Armand papers, with a rainbow of eight assorted waxed linen threads. This is a looperb opportunity to work with these papers, for which I’m already feeling nostalgic.

The year-end gift-giving season will soon be upon us. Should you wish to give a workshop or kit à la carte as a gift, we will be delighted to personalize our gift certificate presentation for the occasion. We are likewise happy to add an enclosure (provided by you!) to the dressy envelope. We can mail the gift certificate to you, or send directly to your recipient. (And of course we will be pleased to send you a process photo or two!)
