Tapestry Weaving for Beginners & Improvers

  • Bell House Dulwich 27 College Rd England, SE21 7BG United Kingdom (map)

Immerse yourself in a day of tapestry weaving.

This class is for beginners, as well as those with a little experience, and the perfect practice session to improve your foundational weaving skills.

On an upright loom, get started with plain weave, then try creating geometric shapes and practice blending colours using multiple wefts.

You'll learn plenty of tips and tricks to improve your weaving, and by the end of the day, you will have made your own small tapestry to take home.

Tapestry weaving allows you to slow down a little and be creative with an art form that plays with colour and design. It's the perfect antidote for busy people with busy lives and is easy to continue at home once you have the basic skills.

All weaving materials and instruction are included, and a prepared loom will be available for you to use in class.

The class will stop for a lunch break. You are welcome to bring a packed lunch or there are cafés nearby in Dulwich Village.
