Meta Weaves with Liz Hill
Join us on Monday, March 18th to hear about “Meta Weaves” with Liz Hill.
Liz Hill is a handweaver living in Western Massachusetts with her wonderful husband and her very bad dog in an intermittently empty nest (degree of emptiness dependent on where her three adult children are in their life adventures and what her current loom count is).
“There are many great essays about the importance of craft, and handweaving in particular, but I can only write about what handweaving means to me, and why I have spent much of the last 25 years immersed in it – warping, weaving, teaching, designing, writing, etc.”

Color, Pattern, Shape: From Inspiration to Design
with Karen Donde
Ever get stuck trying to decide what to weave, knit, dye or felt next? This group exercise is designed to rev up your design engine and organize the many options available to you for creating cloth or the objects you make with it. Bring interesting pictures cut from magazines or old calendars, printed pictures from a vacation or your garden, whatever catches your eye. We’ll sort by various design parameters, organize your inspirations in a sketchbook, discuss ways to formulate them into a design and share ideas among the group. Leave with new design tools and maybe your next project.
