Branch Weaving with Tiffany Fenner
May 24 @ 12:00 pm - 4:00 pm
$40.00 – $90.00
Create woven wall art using natural forked branches as a frame and simple, natural fiber materials. Prepare a branch for weaving, create warp threads between the branch points, weave yarn and fibers into patterns and textures, incorporate beads, ribbons, or feathers, and finish a wall-hanging piece.
Participants are encouraged to bring a branch that feels meaningful to them. A good branch for weaving is forked or Y-shaped, about 6–10 inches of weaving space, dry, and sturdy. Branches will be provided for anyone who cannot bring one.
Each participant will leave with a finished woven wall piece and the skills to continue weaving at home. No experience necessary.
