Read moreWeaving workshop recap
Today I taught a basics weaving workshop to a group of wonderful, friendly and amazingly creative women. They so completely embraced my love of simplicity and possibility and made the day incredibly awesome.
I always provide lots of different yarns so that everyone can find something that speaks to them, and it is fascinating to see what colors and techniques people gravitate towards. The diversity of the finished projects always blows me away. Today we added a special twist by providing some gorgeous fabric strips and the results were really beautiful.
A huge thank you to un moment s.v.p for providing the beautiful space.
Hope to see you at a workshop soon!
Weaving Workshop
I just received word that my weaving workshop is sold out with a waiting list! I'm so excited to meet everyone tomorrow and especially to see what they create. I really hope they love weaving as much as I do, or at the very least, have a lot of fun, connect with others and learn something cool.
