SUMMARY:Weaving Tapestry: Beyond Basics - Kiki Dembrow instructor
DESCRIPTION:Registration details:\nWorkshop Dates and Times:\nWednesday\, September 18     1-4 p.m.\nThursday\, September 19         9 a.m. to 12 p.m. & 1-4 p.m.\nFriday\, September 20               9 a.m. to 12 p.m. & 1-4 p.m.\n(Clean-up 4 – 4:30 p.m.)\nOptional lunch available at the Senior Center for $5 cash purchase each day Wednesday\, Thursday\, and Friday.  Registration in advance is required.\n\n\nOn-line registration only\nCOSWG member registration opens on Monday\, July 1 @ noon and closes July 21 @ 11:30 p.m. for $125 (indicate whether you want to purchase lunch) \nLate and non-guild member registration opens on Monday\, July 22 for $155 (indicate whether you want to purchase lunch) \nThere must be at least 12 registered to go forward and space is limited to 12. \nAdditional materials fee:  $5 to be paid directly to the instructor in cash.\n\n\nEquipment & Supplies\nParticipants are expected to bring a loom that is already warped at 8 epi\, 8 inches wide with the possibility of weaving at least 8-10 inches high as well as the weaving tools they usually use including a tapestry needle\, some wool weft\, a pencil\, eraser\, scissors\, and a ruler. The instructor will provide a handout\, different kinds of wool weft to sample\, and materials for creating a cartoon. Two weeks before the workshop begins the instructor will email the participants. \nWorkshop Description\nSuccessful tapestries are well-planned. There is a lot to consider before beginning to weave. In this workshop we will look at how to evaluate a design in terms of its weaveability. What is meant by a weaveable design? Next\, how can this design be interpreted in “weaverly” ways? Which tapestry techniques would best serve this design? Finally\, we’ll look at using a cartoon. Most weavers use some form of cartoon to guide their weaving. \nTo move beyond basics\, participants will focus on adding to their toolbox of weaving techniques by weaving a sampler. We’ll explore different techniques for creating lines – vertical and horizontal\, for weaving smooth curves\, and for achieving gradations. The workshop will include a quick review of basic important practices\, including how to avoid ridges and pulling in\, as well as varied options for securing the weft. Tips for fixing shed problems will be shared. Once their samplers are completed\, participants will apply what they’ve learned to a cartoon they have prepared\, or one provided by the instructor. They should expect to finish their project at home. \nBio\nSince 2005\, Kiki Dembrow’s passion has been tapestry. Weaving has become the means by which she explores how to translate the interplay of ideas\, images\, and colors that resonate for her into the language of tapestry. Kiki’s practice includes an on-going study of different techniques from different weaving traditions. Since 2006 her tapestries have been regularly exhibited in American Tapestry Alliance’s small unjuried format at Convergence. Her tapestry Landscape was awarded Jurors Choice by the American Tapestry Alliance and Second Place by the Rocky Mountain Weavers Guild at the Northern Colorado Weavers Guild Fiber Celebration in 2018. She is a founding member of Willamette Tapestry Artists (WTA) and currently the president of the Damascus Fiber Arts School Board.

Why not start with weaving bands with cards? Using simple tools\, we’ll start weaving a band that can be used as a lanyard\, lace\, or bracelet. We will begin with a discussion on how to read and design tablet weaving drafts. Then we will proceed to setting up the cards\, weaving the band\, and end with a discussion of finishing techniques. Along the way\, we will focus on avoiding common pitfalls and sharing tips and tricks for weaving perfect bands. For those interested in learning how to tablet weave. \nMay 14 – Tablet Weaving: Double-card double-turn diagonals \nAlso called “Egyptian” Diagonals\, this workshop will focus on weaving diagonal patterns with tablets.  We will use the circular warp setup\, and learn how to use two packs to create interesting diagonal designs.  Patterns will be provided\, but individual exploration will be encouraged.  No previous tablet weaving experience required. \nJohn Mullarkey Bio: \nJohn is passionate about teaching tablet weaving and exploring new ways to make the art form more contemporary. Tablet weaving is a primitive technique that creates simple weave structures\, but offers great variation in patterning. John loves to push tablet weaving beyond its customary limits to create original and surprising interpretations of traditional structures and designs. He is a nationally recognized teacher\, valued for the patience\, clarity and organization he brings to his classes. After beginning to teach in 2009\, John left a software development career to focus on weaving and teaching full time. \nJohn has won many awards\, is a frequent contributor to national fiber arts publications\, and has authored books (“A Tablet Weaver’s Pattern Book\,” “Tablet Weaving: Egyptian Diagonals\,” et al.) and videos (“Tablet Weaving Made Easy\,” “Double-Faced Tablet Weaving”) about the craft. His work appears in international shows and has been displayed at museums. The popular Schacht Zoom Loom is based on John’s design. \n
