SUMMARY:Local Workshop: Rigid Heddle Tips and Tricks
DESCRIPTION:This is a Rigid Heddle Workshop who have started their weaving journey with a goal to learn tips and tricks to improve one’s weaving experience. We will start with hands on warping to weave a scarf or table runner 6-8” in width. Lots of tips\, tricks\, and ideas will be shared to make your weaving experience a fun one. \nNOTE: You must have a loom to take this workshop. The guild does have a couple of looms members can check out. \nInstructor: Raylene Keating \nWhen: 9:30 a.m. – 4 p.m.\, Friday\, August 21st \nWhere:  Redmond Library Community 2 Room: 827 SW Deschutes Ave\, Redmond\, OR 97756 \nCost: $50 \nNumber of Students: Min.= 4     Max.= 7 \nEquipment/supplies students need to bring: \nInstructor will email a list of supplies to attendees prior to the workshop. \nBio:  \nI have been knitting since the 4th grade which came to a near stop during my child rearing days. I learned how to weave at Cat Bordhi’s “Weaving for Knitters” retreats at Friday Harbor in the San Juans starting in 2019. I so appreciated and have leveraged her Zen approach to rigid heddle weaving. My son’s lawn mower sheep contributions opened the world of spinning yarn. I have several rabbit holes in the fiber arts and have explored some more than others such as but not limited to: knitting\, spinning\, weaving\, crocheting\, tapestry\, dying\, and even needle felting. I consider myself a “fiber explorer” always eager to apply my love of learning and what skills I have to new approaches. \nSee workshop policy here. \nWorkshop participants agree to indemnify\, defend and hold harmless COSWG\, its officers and members\, from all claims arising out of workshop activities.
