Since it was established in 1988, Project Workshops has gained an unrivalled reputation for artistic excellence. The resident arts businesses at Project Workshops have become a byword for quality with a list of clients including galleries, the film industry and public, private and international projects.  I am delighted to be surrounded by such a renowned calibre of heritage arts and crafts.  

 

Set in rural Hampshire, a stones throw from the A303 to London, near historic sites such as Danebury Hill Fort, Stonehenge and the small market town of Stockbridge in the heart of the Test Valley.  My studio  is a tranquil setting surrounded by rolling pastures, teaming with wildlife; where time seems to slow down.  

 

Visiting is by appointment only with regular open days, alternatively sign up to my newsletter and one of my workshops and I will welcome you into my space.

This is a two day intensive learning to weave course on a table loom for the complete beginner or those that may be a little rusty and in need of a reminder.  It is a fast paced workshop but the quiet and relaxing studio at Project Workshops and Sharon’s teaching style will ensure it is enjoyable and fun course.

 

The course covers the whole process of weaving from thread to finished woven cloth on a Harris Table Loom.  You will learn how to design a threading plan, wind a warp, dress the loom and finally read the lifting plans and weave some stunning samples using Sharon’s publication, “A Designer’s Guide to Weave.”

 

Day 1

 

You will learn to design your own warp choosing your own colour schemes, wind it on a warping frame or mill and then wind it on the loom.  You will then be guided in threading your warp following a threading draft that you planned at the beginning.  Sharon will be on hand to guide you through every stage of the process with enthusiasm and refreshments when needed! 

 

Day 2 

 

You will spend the morning threading your warp though the reed, tying the warp in preparation for weaving, with the remainder of the day spent exploring colour, texture and simple structures - weaving your own designed cloth!

 

All materials, tools and supporting handouts will be provided.  You will go home with ample notes and a small technical log book so that you may continue once the course has finished.

 

Lunch and refreshments are provided and there is plenty of free on-site parking.

Exploring the possibilities of colour theory weaving with contrasting colours, harmonious hues and complimentary opposites, texture and reverse pattern; you will leave with an array of samples, technical notebook and the confidence and inspiration to continue to experiment through playful approaches to create your own individual projects and designs.

Weavers are invited to bring their own looms or you are welcome to use one of the looms from the studio.
