Weaving Classes
I often teach weaving classes at the Brookfield Craft Center, in Brookfield, CT. BCC is housed in a collection of historic buildings that once served as a mill. The fiber studio is located on the bank of the Still River, with plenty if windows and light, it is a rather idyllic weaving space. I offer classes on rigid heddle looms (we use Ashford rigid heddle looms), as well as introductory classes weaving on floor looms. Class sizes usually range from 3-6 students.

Proof of COVID-19 vaccination is required by everyone taking classes on campus. At this time (Winter 2023/24) wearing a mask in class is optional for students.
Private Lessons
Please note: Due to a busy fall and winter schedule I am not currently accepting new students for private lessons.
I am also available to teach private lessons in your home using your own equipment. This is a great option for someone who has a loom but needs to learn how to dress the loom, needs a refresher on warping, or is looking to refine their technique and process. I can also assist in setting up looms. These private lessons are tailored to each person’s individual needs. Please contact me for more information. The fee is $45 per hour and my driving time will be calculated in after the first 15 minutes from my home.
