Let your warp yarn be the star with this unique warp faced structure. In this three part class students will learn how to create warp faced patterns on the rigid heddle loom working with weaving swords. This structure uses a combination of a thin and thick wefts to create blocks of pattern. Rep weave is wonderful for table wares, rugs, and bags. It is a sturdy and stunning fabric with lots of opportunity for color play.
Workshops will be led by Sara Goldenberg White, who has been teaching weaving along the Front Range for over a decade. Her passion for weaving and teaching started during her graduate study at Colorado State University. She teaches a variety of fiber techniques but sharing her love of weaving with others is one of her greatest joys. Sara coauthored Simple Woven Garments: 20+ Projects to Weave and Wear with Jane Patrick. Sara also has a lively fine arts practice and has exhibited her work at museums and galleries throughout the country. Sara enjoys the balance of creating her own work and sharing her love of weaving in the classroom. She looks forward to seeing you there!
