Weaving Workshop With Caitlin Emeritz
Textiles and textures are an easy way to add warm and eye catching touches to your home. Join Caitlin Emeritz at Cairo on March 5 from 1-3pm to learn the basic principles of weaving which can be built upon and applied to other crafts and go home with a project of your own to add to your collection.
Ms. Emeritz is a self taught artist and has been honing her craft for several years. Her instruments of choice are the floor loom and lap loom, and she has a particular passion for projects that present logistical challenges. Her experimental forms have led to 3D projects executed in natural materials such as locally produced or homespun linen, cotton, alpaca, silk and the like.
For this workshop, Catilin will focus on lap loom weaving including fundamental and binary weaving style as well as decorative embellishment and basic tapestry techniques. The class will also discuss practical performance of your finished products and what to consider when choosing materials. Class costs include a simple wooden frame loom complete with tools, as well as natural fiber for first project as well as follow up support via email. Cost is $90.00 there is a maximum of 5 seats. Last day to sign up is March 2.
