Two weeks ago I went to "camp" to finish my work for the Level 1 certification, I was at the John C. Campbell Folk School.
I only made 1 Temari for my certification because several that I made during the course work were good enough that they qualified for submission.
So what does the submission require?
I have to submit a single Temari in each of the following 4 categories
Once the temari are made, then you have to prepare the photos for submission
Here are the 4 temari I am submitting; these are NOT the pictures that will be sent to the JTA as I have still have to take them.
After I prepare the images I then fill out the form, send in my money and in the spring everything is sent to the JTA for evaluation; and I wait until next summer when the results are sent back
