      Join us for Rigid Heddle Weaving with Helen Rau

      Rigid Heddle loom is a great way to start your weaving journey. This class introduces new weavers to the portable rigid heddle loom. Weavers have the option to create a table runner or placemats. We will go over different pattern techniques, play with color palettes, experiment with various fibers, and learn how to warp and dress the loom.

      The rigid heddle loom is essentially a rectangular, wooden frame loom. However, it differs from the simple frame looms that are now readily available and often used for tapestry, as it has space for a heddle/reed, making it capable of producing sheds (gaps or spaces) to weave through. It is a 2 shaft loom, but has further reaching capabilities.

      This class is open to any skill level. There will be an additional supply fee of $20, to include yarn and weaving tools, payable to the instructor on the first day of class. All supplies and materials will be provided. 

      What to Bring: 

      • $25 supply fee
      • Notebook and pen
      • Sharp scissors 
      • Lunch and drink 
      • Sweater/jacket (room can get chilly)

      Join us for Sewing 101 with Kye Harford

      This entry-level sewing class is geared towards ones that want to start sewing as a hobby or up their sewing skills and looking to skip the hassle of spending hours reading the operation manual or watching YouTube tutorials only to be frustrated and lose motivation.
      Participants will learn to sew a coaster and/or mini tote by the end of the class.


      This class covers:
      - operating a sewing machine and its basic functions
      - purposes & uses of the different stitch types
      straight stitching
      - basic machine maintenance
      - troubleshooting

      What to Bring:

      • $15 supply fee

      Join us for Rigid Heddle Weaving with Reina Young

      This class introduces new weavers to the portable rigid heddle loom. Weavers have the option to create a scarf, table runner, or placemats. We will go over different pattern techniques, play with color palettes, experiment with various fibers, and learn how to warp and dress the loom.

      The rigid heddle loom is essentially a rectangular, wooden frame loom. However, it differs from the simple frame looms that are now readily available and often used for tapestry, as it has space for a heddle/reed, making it capable of producing sheds (gaps or spaces) to weave through. It is a 2 shaft loom, but has further reaching capabilities.

      This class is open to any skill level. There will be an additional supply fee of $20, to include yarn and weaving tools, payable to the instructor on the first day of class. All supplies and materials will be provided. 

      What to Bring: 

      • $20 supply fee
      • Notebook and pen

      Join us for Sashiko Stitching with Kye Harford.

      Sashiko, a Japanese embroidery style that uses just the running stitch, takes many forms.
      In this class you’ll learn about the history of sashiko and be able to see many other exmples of this method.

      In addition you’ll learn how to stitch the Japanese way as you sew 1 or 2 (depending on time) flowers or animals you may frame or transform into coasters. And you’ll find out about 2 clever tricks to make transferring the designs easy. 

      We’ll provide the coaster base, sashiko thread, needles, needle threader, patterns, marking pencils, picture frame, and handouts. 



      Sashiko refers to the humble running stitch once sewn in repeating rows to repair clothing. The stitching has evolved over the years to represent traditional patterns and designs. Today it is used to decorate clothing and other functional items, and to embellish modern wall hangings. Examples will be shared in class.

      What to bring:

      • $10 Supply fee
      • Scissors
