ABOUT THIS WORKSHOP

Duration: Four hours (with breaks)
Cost: €50

This four-hour workshop is an invitation to slow down and work with your hands.

Using a simple frame loom, we’ll explore tapestry weaving as both craft and quiet drawing — building image, texture and rhythm through thread. 

We’ll begin with an introduction to different types of looms and how they function, before learning how to set up and warp your own frame loom. From there, we’ll move through essential tapestry techniques, exploring how colour, density and texture can shift the feeling of a piece.

During the workshop, we’ll cover:

– Types of loom and how they work
– Setting up and warping your frame loom
– Tools and preparation techniques
– Core beginner tapestry stitches
– Techniques for building texture and variation
– Finishing and removing your weaving

This workshop is suitable for complete beginners, as well as those who would like to reconnect with weaving in a more intentional way.

By the end of the session, you’ll leave with a small woven tapestry sample of your own — and the confidence to continue exploring the medium independently.

All materials are included.

Jane’s teaching is very relaxed and informal. Very therapeutic. The weaving was very easy and such a relaxing way to spend an afternoon or morning.

Fantastic teacher and facilities. Brilliant day with friends.I had a fantastic time at one of the half day workshops with some girlfriends. Jane is an incredibly skilled artist whose passion for weaving is infectious! None of us had experience in weaving but with Jane’s support we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and made some beautiful creations! I’ll definitely be coming back.

Jeni / Student

I took this weaving workshop with my 2 grown up daughters. We were all completely transfixed for hours. Jane is a great teacher and we all felt so comfortable and relaxed learning a totally new skill.

We were all really happy with the pieces we created. Definitely recommended!

Jess / Student

What a great afternoon spent with Jane learning the basics of weaving – so many colours to choose from, almost too much choice – and so many techniques to try with.

Tamsyn / Student

I never thought I could love it as much as I did! It was fabulous to be creative and the way Jane teaches it makes it so easy to learn! Can’t wait to go back.

Sonia / Student

Jane is a fantastic teacher, she gives clear and simple instruction, bringing to light individual creativity. She is motivating, fun and I’d highly recommend her inspirational tuition.

Kate E / Student

Well I’ve had many tutors over years with different subjects.  For me Jane is such a lovely teacher.  When you have a problem, you chat with her & she will say, have you tried it this way, or that way, then you  feel silly, as you did not think of doing it like that.  She never makes you feel at a loss.

She gives confidence, & it works. My progress was immense.

Creative Bliss – If you are hunting for a way to express yourself creatively then look no further! A great alternative to a beach day for holiday makers!  Jane teaches in a very relaxed cool setting and the small class sizes made it so easy to learn. Choose the colours that speak to you and you’ll be whizzing along in no time making your own piece of art! Such a great way to spend the day. Jane is a teacher that exudes great calm energy. Even my errors didn’t faze her! I’m certain you won’t regret taking this workshop!
