Repurposing & Weaving: A Perfect Pair
***On Monday, October 5, when you register for this class, you automatically get access to the Weave Your Own Color Gamp Class, too! Don't miss it!
Weaving and repurposing are like peanut butter & jelly! They naturally fit together to create something new and wonderful - while simultaneously helping save the planet! What more could you want?
In this special class, we'll explore the following:
- why a loom is the perfect vehicle for transforming old clothing and accessories into something new and wonderful
- what items can and can't be repurposed in your weaving project
- suggested techniques for preparing and utilizing repurposed items
- special considerations for your repurposed project
Chris Acton, with Acton Creative, is teaching this unique class from the perspective of a multi-shaft loom weaver. But, the concepts and techniques can be applied to any weaver working on any loom (frame, rigid heddle, table, floor, 4-shaft, 8-shaft, etc.).
All students will receive access to the complete class video, along with 2 helpful downloadable aids - the Idea Sheet, and the Repurpose Formula.
This is a perfect class for the weaver interested in a little inspiration, some new ideas, and ways to be kinder to Mother Earth.
