OFF LOOM WEAVING

In this 3 week class, students will meet once a week to understand the "under and
over " process of needle weaving. Students can choose to weave a small
3-dimensional ornament such as the one pictured, or weave a pin or pendant for a
necklace.

FRAME LOOM WEAVING

In this beginning class, students will learn the basics of weaving, and weave a
textured "tapestry" on a prepared frame loom. Students will mount their finished
piece on a fabric board for wall display. Classes meet once a week for 3 weeks

INKLE LOOM WEAVING

Students will learn how to set up or "warp" an inkle loom and weave a narrow
band. Students will decide how to finish their bands from a choice of a belt, small
purse, guitar strap, or dog collar/leash. Classes meet once a week for 4 weeks.

RIGID HEDDLE LOOM WEAVING

Using a traditional rigid heddle loom, students will prepare a "warp" on the loom
and weave their choice of a purse or scarf. Classes meet once a week for 4
weeks.
