The best beginning weaving class for Rigid Heddle Loom

I have taken this course twice now. The first time the pandemic got in the way and I didn't use the skills I had learned, so lost them again. Deborah is a wonderful teacher and used mistakes/teaching opportunities we all have in the class as ways to help everyone learn. I was able to warp and partially complete my scarf during the class. I feel so much more able to follow the handout and finally weave independently. Thank you Deborah.

Great Introduction to Weaving!

The instructor, Deborah, walked the class through all aspects of weaving from yarn and loom selection, getting set up (warping) and shared weaving best practices for a simple scarf project!

Deborah’s a pro

It’s very clear Deborah is a pro at weaving and at teaching. She gives great instructions that are clear and easy to follow. The class is well-paced and everyone seems to finish pretty much on time. I appreciate being able to bring my own loom too. I retook this class with a friend for her first time and I still learned it was reminded of a lot of things I had forgotten. Worth taking again just for the experienced assistance and insight.
