Classes for 2017



Reposted from 11/29/16

After a successful year of classes I am looking forward to the eight week lull until my 2017 classes begin.  It will be a very busy year, starting out with a very exciting teaching opportunity - I will be co-teaching Acadian Weaving - L'Amour de Maman with Norman Kennedy at the Marshfield School of Weaving in Vermont in late January - I'll add a date on the sidebar here when we pin down the weekend.

My primary class topics for 2017 turned out to be Acadian Weaving, Tartans and Tweeds - some of my favorite classes to teach!  Here is my calendar for the coming year and there is also a list in the sidebar of my blog with links to the sponsoring organizations (full version only, I don't think you can see the sidebar on a smart phone):

January 20-22 (tent) Acadian Weaving for the Marshfield School of Weaving in Vermont
