Soak up the sights, sounds and warm summer breezes at Shelburne Farms while playing with color, texture and image on a small, portable tapestry loom. Students will have the opportunity to be inspired by nature while they choose colors and techniques that reflect what they see, or a representation of it. Yarn blending to produce color impacts and shading techniques will be of special focus in this unique tapestry class.

Students are asked to either have an active membership to Shelburne Farms or to make a donation to the nonprofit.

Small hand-held looms will be available for each student that they will have for the duration of the class; students can also supply their own looms if desired. The instructor will have some yarn available for students to use, but they are also encouraged to bring their own in colors that speak to them and reflect aspects of the landscape most appealing to them.

** Yarn should be appropriate for a loom warped at 8 ends per inch.
