Workshop & Kit Gift Card
Know someone who would love to take part in one of the online weaving workshops? Why not surprise them with a gift card!
This gift card is to the value of one virtual off-loom weaving workshop & one materials pack.
If you would prefer just the workshop, without the kit, you can find that here.
All you have to do is let me know which workshop date you prefer, and I’ll send all the info.
The recipient can also tell me if they would like to make colour requests for their kit.
The gift cards have no time limit, so there is no rush to use it ;-)
——————————————————————————
Whether you’re a seasoned weaver or a total beginner, these little creations are magical to do - and better yet, you can do it from your sofa!
Discover a new skill, meet like-minded people and enjoy the rewarding feeling of having made something beautiful from scratch.
In this workshop we'll put functionality and fashion aside for a moment to celebrate woven cloth, and the structures used to create it.
Twills, herringbones, dogtooth, hopsack - typically part of a functional product, a garment or home furnishing - now shown in a different setting, as artworks, to be displayed and admired as a painting or a sculpture would be.
We’ll take our time to learn about the history of the fabrics we are weaving, and why it's important to challenge the mentality around fast fashion.
Though first developed for its functionality, weaving has long been practiced as a form of expression, like many other artistic disciplines - but in today's fast paced fashion culture, we have started to think of textiles as 'disposable’ - and the craft of weaving is perceived as devalued.
Through these weavings, we’ll re-familiarise ourselves with the human input that goes into our clothing, and the skill, patience and craftsmanship of the makers.
These little woven studies are magical to do, and using a needle and thread is a great exercise for getting to grips with the basics of weaving without the complexity of the loom.
Besides the kit, on the day you will need:
Scissors that you don’t mind cutting double sided tape with (not your best fabric scissors!)
Pencil/Pen
Ruler
Please note:
A Zoom link will be sent to participants by email upon booking.
You will receive instruction manuals a week prior to the workshop, so that you can familiarise yourself with the method.
A video recording of the workshop will be available afterwards, that you can look back on as many times as you like.
This learning content is for your personal use only and is not to be shared, re-sold or used for your own teaching purposes. Thank you ;-)
