At the Studio

 

In Fall of 2021 I had to close my large teaching studio in Dunedin due to the uncertainty of  Covid -19 . I was never sure when I could be open again so I decided to teach classes on Zoom  which has been very successful for students that are confident in setting up their own loom to do their project at home. It’s allowed me to expand  my audience to other areas of the country and reconnect with former students in the Northeast.


Over the past year , we built a smaller studio in a building on our property and it’s finally finished! There I am able to work one on one with beginners and continue to teach more advanced classes on Zoom as well as work on my own weaving any time of day! My husband has some medical issues so it’s also good  to be nearby if he needs me.

 

From January through March , The Path  and Doubleweave class kept us all connected through Zoom. Then I took a break to build the studio over the summer. The the next in the series of The Path classes continued in the Fall with the theme of  "Breath". It was very interesting to see how students interpreted something that is invisible into a woven form.

The Path class guides students to follow a theme and express their ideas using simple looms and a variety of textile techniques. The themes continue to evolve and many have returned to continue to explore their own path. Students learn to organize  their ideas using Powerpoint or Keynote that leads to a final presentation of amazingly original work!
