Come and enjoy a wonderful day weaving your very own woven cushion cover top using a peg loom.

This workshop is perfect for beginners and you will be supported as you create your own unique cushion top design. Agnis will guide you from the initial design stage and the selection of materials through to the setup and hand weaving process. You will weave your very own unique piece of fabric to take home with you.

– Explore different coloured yarns and textures – both man-made and natural materials.
– Learn how to warp up the loom.
– Learn how to weave on the loom.
– Try a range of different techniques to use within your piece of work.

Please note there will not be time within the workshop to sew your woven cushion top into a final cushion, you will leave with a square piece of fabric to then sew into a cushion at home later.

Please note there is a £6 material charge payable on the day.

What to expect

Time at ArtisOn is designed to take you away from it all. We provide the environment, the time and the guidance you need to create. You can expect a warm welcome, skilled and friendly tutors and the chance to meet like-minded people keen to share ideas. You can even leave us to clear up the mess! There will usually be two workshops going on and we encourage everyone to mingle and be nosey about what the other workshop is up to.

We encourage you to arrive at 9.30am. This will allow time to meet other participants over a cup of tea or coffee and biscuits before beginning workshops at 10am. There will be a mid-morning break for refreshments and a chance to talk over progress with others. Lunch is usually around 12:45 for about 45 mins – you can expect a delicious homemade 2 course lunch. There will be a further afternoon break with tea or coffee and cake. All food and refreshments are included in the price of your workshop.

The finish time given is a target. There are occasions when the session may overrun so do let us know if you need to be away promptly.

We aim for your day to be a real treat. You could always learn a new skill in a shed or a draughty village hall with a curly sandwich, but we want you to have more fun than that! So we make sure we provide a day where you will be looked after, with good food, good company and great inspiration!
