Planning a Weaving Project Class

Planning a Weaving Project Class

One of the major skills every weaver should learn is how to plan your projects from scratch. How do you take a kernel of an idea and make a plan for turning it into your own unique handwoven fabric? Well, my friend, it’s not that hard once you understand how the pieces fit together. And I have a plan to walk you through each and every piece.

So join me for the Planning a Weaving Project Class and open up an entirely new world where all your great ideas can be transformed into incredible projects for you to enjoy.
