As part of First Thursdays in Devonport | Te Hau Kapua, join us on Thursday 2 October, 5-7pm for our Botanical Weaving Workshop with Karen Rubado.
Back by popular demand! Missed it the first time? Here’s your second chance!
This workshop is a 2-hour course designed to introduce you to frame weaving with dried flowers and leaves. With some basic tapestry weaving techniques you’ll be on your way to creating your own botanical textile masterpiece.
We’ll be using natural yarn (wool or cotton) to create the tapestry base (warp) and will then employ a tabby weave for the flowers and leaves. Frame looms, wool and flowers will be provided and you’ll be able to take your weaving home with you.
