Deb has always been interested in all things textile. After taking copious weaving workshops on a variety of subjects, she offered to develop a class for her local guild. That was 17 years and about 14 workshop topics ago. Having started out as a librarian, she enjoys the research, learning about the structures, and most of all she enjoys sharing what she has discovered with others. The resource materials she creates are meant to be used, referenced, and serve as a jumping-off point for the student's further exploration. There's always something new to learn and discover, and so much to share with other weavers! Please read these important ticketing details:
