Weaving Fabric For Texture

Friday - August 5
​1:00pm – 5:00pm

Beginner II     

$40.00

Fabric weaving is a technique that can either stand alone or work with other techniques to provide interest and dimension to your quilting and sewing. The basic technique is two pieces of fabric cut or torn into strips which are then woven together and either fused or stitched together. Books and the internet provide lots of information on weaving patterns, so you can get as complicated as you want with fabric, yarn, and ribbon. We’ll discuss options for various looks/styles, and you will go home with one woven background to use as you wish.
