If you have taken our Framed Weaving Workshop for Beginner's or have ever woven a project using a kit, consider this class the next level. We'll be taking a deep dive into design, shape, and mastering various techniques using tabletop tapestry looms.
Building on the skills covered in the Beginner Frame Weaving class, we'll spend time planning discussing design fundamentals while planning our tapestry projects. With a focal point and clear design sketched out, you'll explore different stitch patterns like a twill or basket weave. This longer workshop allows for more exploration by building layers of texture with soumak, rya knots, or interlocking shapes.
By the end of the second session, you will learn how to attach a dowel rod and finish your piece off of the loom.
All supplies and tools will be provided including:
