Tapestry Weaving Part 2

In this class students will work on designing and completing tapestries made on small tabletop loom frames. Students who have completed the "Intro to Tapestry Weaving" course, or those who have some level of previous tapestry experience (they only need to know the very basics), are welcome to sign up for this course. We will talk about principles of design in tapestry and how they intersect with the practical constraints of constructing a fabric. Everyone will learn new methods through the problem solving of their personal design. Each class will be a free work session with instructor advice and oversight.
