She is honored to be the steward of a small piece of land in Baltimore County\, where she has planted many of the native trees\, shrubs\, and herbaceous plants she remembers from her childhood\, as well as many old-fashioned garden favorites. She approaches natural dyeing and eco printing with enthusiasm and sense of exploration. This willingness to follow the question\, “what if …” has led to many happy discoveries about the colors present in the plants found in our gardens and wild spaces. Pamela is happiest in the garden planting\, tending\, or harvesting; in the studio making prints\, creating books or playing with fibers; or when sharing her love of these activities with others. \n  \nShare this:\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook

SUMMARY:Introduction to Freeform Tapestry Weaving
DESCRIPTION:Introduction to Freeform Tapestry Weaving\, an Outdoor Weaving Workshop at Raritan Headwaters \nby Anne Choi of Middle Brook Fiberworks \nFreeform tapestry weaving is an expressive\, process-oriented way to explore traditional handweaving techniques to create a piece that is personal and unique. A standing tabletop loom enables us to incorporate a wealth of textures such as fluffy roving\, long fleece locks\, silk ribbon\, cotton punis\, and handspun art yarn. We’ll learn how to set up the loom and plan a design. Using various weave structures and knotting methods\, we’ll discover how to achieve geometric shapes and contours. At the end of class\, everyone will have completed their own sampler tapestry to take home.  All equipment\, tools\, and materials will be provided\, and participants are invited to bring any special fibers or yarn they would like to include in their works. \nThe class will be given at Raritan Headwaters\, 2121 Larger Cross Road\, Gladstone\, NJ 07934\non 4/02/22 from 10 AM – 1:30-PM (Rain date: April 9)\nSignup/ More Info: https://www.raritanheadwaters.org/event/introduction-to-freeform-tapestry-weaving/ \nShare this:\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook
