Summer Weaving Workshop

The Philadelphia University Textile Design program hosted a 6 week, summer handweaving workshop.  Participants who were new to weaving, were taught the entire process, from yarn to finished fabric.  Those with some experience tackled more complex woven projects.  It was a great, fun workshop for everyone.  See the below for some images from the workshop.
