Introduction to Fabric Weaving

Introduction to Fabric Weaving

This class is a lovely introduction to fabric weaving! Starting with ribbon to create accent cards is a smart way to get familiar with the weaving process—manageable yet rewarding. The variation in ribbon width will make each piece unique, adding a personal touch to your final design.

During this class, we will highlight techniques like simple over-under weaving, securing the edges neatly, and experimenting with patterns by alternating colors or textures. We will add to the fun by incorporating small embellishments, too—like beads or embroidery—to enhance the woven design.

This can be a one-time session in weaving, or part of a broader exploration into textile arts. This class can be the perfect steppingstone to more complex weaving projects!

Weave Easy Fabric Tools will be available for purchase at a discount ($12.000
