Adventures in Paper Weaving

Overview

Paper weaving is a quick and fun way to play with color, image, and pattern—without a loom!

Even if you’ve never seen a weaving draft and don’t know warp from weft, you’ll be weaving by the end of the workshop.

We will begin by viewing the diverse work of several artists working in this medium today.

The instructor will demonstrate how to choose papers for weaving, how to decorate them yourself if you choose to do that, how to cut strips, choose a weave structure, read a weaving draft, and how to do the actual weaving.

We will emphasize choosing papers and weave structures that create maximum visual interest and interaction between image and weave. Finally, we will look at how to finish and mount your completed weaving. Molly will share several handouts and resources.
