  • Lovely class! Couldn't believe how easy, relaxing, and satisfying it was!
  • The class was welcoming and beginner friendly. The only thing I wished was different was having a little more time or potentially going faster, since we did not get through much. However it was a good start to continue practicing weaving in the future.
  • I loved this class so much! I was very nervous - I had been trying to teach myself to sew...with mixed results. The instructor was super clear and I walked away with a beautiful quilt! I can't believe it.

  • Intro to Tapestry Weaving (One Day Class)

    Perfect class. The first 2/3 of the class we learned a bunch of different techniques, which we then incorporated our own tapestry to take home and finish. It was exactly what I was looking for to get started on my personal projects. Highly recommend if you're curious about how this stuff is done.
  • They never disappoint!!!
  • I had a great time. The instructor was very patient and I can’t wait to bring a friend to another Zen Weaving class.
  • Wonderful experience! I had so much fun and plan to go back very soon.

Hit of our trip! Thank you so much!
  • Highly recommended. Very absorbing and fun to do. Helpful teacher with lots of encouragement.
  • This class was enjoyable. At first I was a bit put off because there were children in the class, (I didn’t expect that).However they well behaved and focused on what they were doing. I was given one on one instructions, but also allowed to work on my own. I would definitely recommend to anyone who asks.
  • Instruction was very helpful for someone who had never done weaving before. The intern Sonya was especially good in encouraging me about my work at moments when I was doubtful. Two hours was just the right amount of time for me to learn and complete a project.
  • Loved this class!
  • What a fantastic class. The studio is lovely as is the owner, the weaving is pretty easy to pick up with her clear instruction. You can really feel the zen aspect, it was a great way to unwind after a work day. I did this with a friend and it was an ideal environment to sometimes chat and sometimes focus on our craft. I will definitely be back for an advanced class!
  • This class was great - you can start weaving right away and make something cool with not a lot of effort, or if you want to learn more advanced techniques you can ask for that as well. Materials were included and the yarn, felt, and ribbon options were really beautiful. I loved the results!
