Spinning, Weaving, Stitching

Fiber Play: A Joyous Mediation
Spin the wheel, dress the loom, interlock needles and yarns.
Come find the interweaving of the inward and outward as warp meets weft.
As we create cloth we create our lives.
I invite you to join in a community of sharing the work and play of our hands, hearts and minds. Bring an ongoing project and/or learn a new skill.
We will spend the day together in activity and stillness, silence and spoken word.
We will create simple woven and sewn journals to record our journeys.

Time 10am-4pm with a simple vegetarian lunch
Cost $60 plus materials
