    This Berkshire Botanical Garden online workshop meets July 13 and 14, 4 – 6 p.m.

    Keep your tools close at hand with a handmade canvas tool belt for the garden or workshop. Under the guidance of textile artist Jamie Goldenberg, participants will create their tool belts on their own sewing machines. A basic knowledge of how to use a sewing machine is required; heavy-duty machines are preferred but not necessary. Materials and pattern are included in the cost of this two-session workshop and can be obtained via local pick-up or shipped domestically to those registered before July 7. An additional shipping fee will apply. Workshop is $25 for BBG members, $30 for nonmembers. Register at https://www.berkshirebotanical.org/events/make-tool-belt-garden

    Jamie Goldenberg is a textile artist based in western Massachusetts. Informed by her background in art and cultivating native plants, she designs, dyes and weaves objects with narratives based in the natural world, but meant for the domestic realm. Her approach uses materials from a particular place to make pieces that reflect the experience of that environment. She was a 2016 resident of the Textile Arts Center in Brooklyn, an adjunct professor at the Parsons School of Design in NYC, and co-founder of MUSE in Housatonic, a former textile mill turned artist space. She currently weaves and teaches in her studio in Housatonic. www.harttextiles.net, @harttextiles on Instagram
