Our shop is planning to add additional art/craft classes and I am looking for some input on what people are interested in learning. Any ideas?

Depending on the hours of the classes (not late evening/night classes) and the cost, I'd be interested in cake decorating, quilting, and ceramics/pottery.

Wait until dowhat sees you are planning on goofing off rather than getting your chores done in a reasonable timeframe.

At the moment we offer spinning, knitting, decorative painting and a couple of different types of weaving classes. We're thinking we might add jewelry, painted floorcloth and needle felting workshops. Mostly I do crazy quilting and I can show you how I do that. It's easy, quick and uses up every bit of scraps.
Can't help you with the ceramics or pottery, that's a whole different set up. I can tell you if you are over 50 the senior center in Charlotte Hall they have a nice ceramic/pottery studio with wheels, slab roller and a kiln. Plus they sell greenware if you want to go that way.
I thought Michaels had cake decorating classes?

Michaels does have cake decorating classes but from what I have heard they are not that informative or well taught.

Stained glass classes would be cool... Who are you affiliated with?

Fuzzy Farmer's Market in Leonardtown. Stained glass would be out of our realm but I'm going to try something with sea glass and resin, we'll see how it turns out.

This is what a friend and I worked on yesterday:

we made concrete stepping stones and birdbaths. They aren't out of the molds yet, I can post a picture when they are done. It was lots of fun.
