In this class you will learn how to create a woven wall hanging start to finish. At the end of the class you will be able to take home your weaving to display in your home! We will begin by learning how to warp a loom. We will then move on to mastering the different types of woven stitches and weaving techniques. I will do demonstrations for the class and then allow you to work on your piece independently while I observe and answer questions. After you have finished your piece we will learn how to tie off loose ends and take the piece off of the loom. Once complete you will be able to take your piece home!  This is an introductory level course.

You have the option to purchase the table loom you use in class! This is a great option for those that want to continue their weaving practice after the class is over. If you decide to use one of our shared looms, your materials are all still included in the class fee.

With Table Loom Purchase, this class includes:

• all materials needed to complete your first wall hanging

• a loom to take home with you

• access to an online weaving course to use as a refresher!
