    Tapestry Weaving

    taught by Nancy Sharples


    Tapestries are woven pieces with either realistic or abstract images. On a small frame loom, students will learn to weave a variety of shapes such as boxes, stripes, hatching, angles and curves. These can be combined to weave any desired image. Students will then draw a design for a larger piece which they will start on a loom which will be constructed in class. This class is good for beginners and experienced weavers alike.

    Please bring a good pair of scissors.
