Join award-winning weaver Dahlia Popovits for a fun, full-day workshop where you’ll design and weave your own unique creation—choose either a tote bag or a table runner!

Each student will have a rigid heddle loom to use, along with repurposed cotton fabric strips and luxury yarns. You’re also welcome to bring your own fabrics—flannel shirts, neckties, patterned sheets, or other beloved textiles—to cut into strips and incorporate into your project.

No experience needed. All materials (plus a loom to use in class) are provided, and you’re welcome to bring your own repurposed fabrics for a personal touch.

Leave with a beautiful, handmade piece—perfect to keep or gift!
