I still have some spaces open in my one-week workshop at Penland coming up next month.  If you're interested in exploring journaling through the lense of a loom, check out the description and links below.  Nestled in the mountains of western North Carolina, Penland is an amazing place to take a class.

Robin Johnston - Weaving as Journaling

This class will use the inherently time-based process of weaving to create journals that document daily experience. Approaching the journal as an open-ended starting point, we will consider how basic weaving and dyeing techniques can be used to articulate and reflect events in everyday life. We will explore traditional and experimental materials and techniques including tapestry, supplementary wefts, warp painting with pigment dyes, and image transfer.
