COME WEAVE WITH US

Homestead Weaving Studio is now open for classes and "day weaving" ... especially tailored for visitors to our area who would like to experience the artisan lifestyle of Brown County and have something that THEY made to take home with them. Check the rug in the box on the right to see what's on the looms for the month. Also listed are the projects and costs involved. Contact us to reserve a time slot that you'll be visiting and wish to "make it and take it." Click the rug to see the list of looms and projects.

"With uncertainty that I'd be able to do this, I signed up for a beginner's weaving class. Chris met us w/ a warm welcome and friendly smile, and immediately put us at ease with her looms and possible projects. She was a very patient and encouraging teacher, and even patched up my "goofs" so they don't show. I absolutely enjoyed my half day under her guidance." - Sharon P. - Ohio

#1 - Union 26" neutral rug warp

This lovely foursome each made a special project during their 4-hour weaving session in March to celebrate a milestone birthday. The event was organized by the daughter for her mother (the two in the middle) and her aunts (on each end).

#7 - 8-harness dish towel

#13 - 70" rug warp

"I completely enjoyed my first experience with weaving thanks to Chris. The weaving environment was peaceful and relaxing. The completed project is beautiful and warm! I will do this again next time I'm in Brown Co. Thanks Chris! - Kathy M.

This is a shawl warp
of handpainted, handspun wool
that is a combination
of several colors.

The cherry Norwood is being sectionally
warped with multi-color carpet warp for
a series of twill rag rugs. This warp has long since been woven off the loom, but I'm leaving the picture for those who are interested in my method of sectional warping.
