Connect with the past and design for the future using this versatile structure. Using one warp, you will begin with traditional pattern treadling and advance to more varied structures, including honeycomb and boundweave. Learn how to keep track of pattern treadling without a draft, how to use color to create depth, and how to adapt overshot designs for your own use.

Instructor Bio
Laurie Duxbury has been weaving for 35 years and over time has developed her own weaving voice. She teaches for guilds, conferences and weaving schools, including at Convergence, NEWS, and MAFA. Laurie’s goal for each student is that they understand what they love about weaving and develop the tools they need to express themselves through weaving. Her favorite moments are when a student has an “aha” experience. Then she knows that a weaver is inspired to continue their growth as a craftsperson.
