Welcome to 2014 Everyone!
We started the new year off with a wonderful group of weavers joining us in our first Colour & Design retreat for 2014.
We had such a fun time learning how to design our cloth, create a beautiful graphic using horizontal and vertical lines to divide the space and expand our colour sense to make exquisite fabric and bring our individual creativity to life. A fascinating, inspiring week full of learning, experiences, great connections, delicious food and lots of chocolate!
The March 3 – 7 Colour and Design workshop is currently full, but we have been informed that one of our students might have to cancel. Would you like to have a shot at getting this spot if it opens up? Just send us an email or give us a call and we’ll put your name on the wait list. Then you’ll have advanced notice if the spot does become available.

Our Pushing the Boundaries of Plainweave June 30 – July 4 and July 28 – August 1 workshops both have two spots available.

Bragging Rights
Jane’s eldest son, Eben has been chosen as one of the scholarship winners in the Student Exhibition at Circle Craft. His mask sculptures are metal, bone and cloth (his own weaving) and are on display at Circle Craft January 25 – February 25. If you’re on Granville Island, they are definitely worth checking out.
India
Just days after our first workshop finished, we whisked Jane off to the airport for her second trip to India with Charllotte Kwon. Jane is spending some time with the weavers who make the exquisite Maiwa wool carpets. It looks like she’s having a wonderful time. We’ll keep you posted on her adventures!
