This 2 day tapestry weaving experience is a rare chance to develop a range of tapestry weaving skills at UK’s longest running tapestry studio.
Aimed at weavers with a little weaving experience, the workshop will introduce you to a range of techniques to create shaped and 3 dimensional weaving.
Taking inspiration from tapestries woven at the dovecot we will explore how manipulate the warp and weft, moveing from traditional flat woven tapestry to a more sculptural approach. Experimenting with a range of techniques, you will receive expert tuition from professional weaver Fiona Hutchison, and at the end of the day you are invited to sit back and admire your tapestry with a glass of fizz!
The price includes equipment and a complimentary glass of fizz to end the class. Attendees will receive a 10% discount on the day of their workshop in the Dovecot shop.
