January 21-February 11
This is a 4-week class.
The American Tapestry Alliance (ATA) defines Tapestry as a handwoven fabric with a weft face and discontinuous wefts. In this four-week beginning tapestry class, we will delve into tapestry weaving and make sense of this definition. This class will include setting up a handheld loom* to begin weaving a weft faced tapestry. We will use tapestry techniques to change colors using discontinuous weft. Discussions will include tapestry looms and yarns used for tapestry weaving. Planning a personal project using a cartoon and finishing techniques will be covered.
*If you do not have a tapestry loom, Christine will provide one that you can purchase or borrow.
If you think this class might be for you but have questions or concerns, please call Christine (774-487-2134) for more information.
Please register early as class registration closes 48 hours before the start of first-class. Registration must be accompanied by full payment
