Woven Wall Hangings can be so versatile and beautiful! All different kinds of materials, fibres and other objects can be used to create your very own one-of-a-kind textile artwork! There are so many techniques to use to create all kinds of textures and patterns. This workshop is for beginners but will also be great fun for someone who's tried their hand at weaving before. You'll be taught several different weaving techniques that create different textural effects including tabby, rya and soumak and you'll learn how to weave shapes and patterns. You can see pictures from one of our previous weaving workshops here.
