Deborah has developed many popular round-robin workshops to help weavers experience multiple weave structures in just days of weaving.  This blue and white stripe workshop will include plain weave, twill, canvas weave, and huck lace. The extensive student notebook will include all the drafts and a place for your personal samples at the end of the workshop.  Student notebooks  will cover ways to take a draft and add stripes in pleasing proportions, including where to put a colored stripe in a fancy twill.  The workshop notebook that Deborah provides is beautiful and the perfect companion for this wonderfully organized round-robin workshop.

About the Instructor: Deborah Todhunter has been teaching weaving workshops on a diverse range of topics: Shadow Weave, the Miniature Overshot of Estes and Hayes, Swedish structures, and checked fabrics. She also knits, tats, and makes bobbin lace — interests that all started at a young age — and spinning came later! Debbie enjoys researching structures, ferreting out obscure resources, and sharing the knowledge with her students.

Paying for this workshop by check is possible, but you must contact the Chair, Melissa Lusk, to arrange registration. Please note that your check must be received within 10 business days of registration.
