    This was a fantastic workshop! Fiona was extremely knowledgeable and patient with us. Over the session she taught us how to set up and prepare the loom, and how to incorporate us a variety of weaving techniques to into our pieces. She worked with each of us to help us develop extremely bespoke and individual pieces and followed up with helpful links and resources to continue weaving. I was extremely happy with my tapestry and would highly recommend the session!
