Ossu!
Shugeibu (Yo! Crafting Club) is fueled by a mix of testosterone and pure creativity
uninhibited by rules or conventions. Using repurposed materials and
freestyle techniques, founder and president Shoichi Ishizawa inspires
his myriad club members--men and women who have participated in his
workshops--to create surprising craft art without any prior experience
in the traditional crafts. Their projects have included a cuddly
receptacle "trash bear," a robotic stuffed dog, no-sew stuffed animals,
and oodles of other unusual creations.
