This is an online class hosted on Zoom.
Inspired by the iconic Norwegian “Wise and Foolish Virgins” tapestries, this weaving course will take a deep dive into the techniques of billedvev (picture weave) as well as some rutevev (square weave), building on skills learned in levels 1 and 2 of Laura’s Introduction to Tapestry Weaving courses. We’ll also be adding new skills and techniques along the way (hence the “stretch”), which makes this is an excellent course for students preparing for Level 3. History, culture, context, and couture will all weave their way into the course, along with stories and ballads of medieval and Renaissance women with chutzpah.
Are you a fan of the “Wise and Foolish Virgins” tapestries? Join us for this exciting course and stretch your tapestry skills with this beautiful project!
Seven Thursdays, March 13 – April 24 (2:00-4:00 pm CT)
