Rugs from Rags

No weaving experience is necessary! The looms are dressed and ready to go, all you need to do is bring your creative spirit and to leave with a finished one-of-a-kind rug.

Colors and choices of fabric and remnants vary from class to class depending on availability. The rugs are 24" wide, and up to 45" long.

Woven Towels

One loom, one warp, so many possibilities! In this class the looms are warped with a natural color and several towels can be woven at the loom. Several weaving patterns and design options will be demonstrated. Select the pattern and colors and you’ll be on your way to a few hand woven towels for yourself or to share.
