In this 3 class series, you will learn the fundamental techniques of lap loom weaving, allowing you to craft a beautiful and unique small wall hanging by the end of the third class. We will go over the basic components of a lap loom and the materials needed to create a “tapestry weaving” or wall hanging. We will create a mini-weaving to practice in class one. In class two, we will begin our final wall piece. In class three, we will focus on finishing techniques and mounting. We will use different materials for weaving, focusing on yarn and roving, and use different weaving methods to create patterns and shapes. This class is focused on beginners. Weaving is an amazing creative outlet, is fun to try, and the outcome creates beautiful textile art for yourself, for gifts, or to sell.
