Weaving a new design journey into the tangible. Stay creative, slow down and make something beautiful with me!
Join me for a cozy coil weaving workshop, no experience necessary, all supplies provided.
In this two-hour workshop, you’ll explore the art of coil weaving using raffia, beginning with a brief introduction to raffia as a natural fiber, while acknowledging the deep and varied traditions of coiled basketry practiced by cultures around the world.
I’ll guide you through the process, from how to start a coil and explore stitch variations, then offering individual support as you work. You’ll learn how to shape, secure, and ways to finish your piece. Like most things in life, your first creation may look delightfully different than expected, but every strand is a step forward, and every coil a moment of progress.
Workshop Details
Workshops are held in the studio where the ideal class size is 4 -6 though I can accommodate up to 10 with a little extra patience and shared space during guided practice. I also offer on-site workshops for a small travel fee, perfect for team-building, club events, seasonal gatherings, bridal or baby showers, or any creative get-together.
With Gratitude and Respect
This workshop is offered in appreciation of the long history of fiber arts, craftsmanship, and creative traditions connected to this land. It is not intended to recreate historical practices, but instead to offer a space for making that honors the broader legacy of handwork, place, and tradition.
I remain committed to humility, respect, and ongoing learning
