Program Description

Event Details

for teens ages 13+ 

Freeform tapestry weaving is an expressive, process-oriented way to explore traditional handweaving techniques to create a piece that is personal and unique. A standing tabletop loom enables us to incorporate a variety of fibers such as fluffy roving, long fleece locks, silk ribbon, and handspun art yarn. 

Using various weave structures and knotting methods, we'll discover how to achieve geometric shapes and contours. At the end of the class, everyone will have completed their own mini sampler tapestry to take home.
