Testimonials:

• Katie scaffolded the techniques flawlessly and provided helpful one-on-one instruction throughout the class between demos. She also shared compelling and inspiring contemporary artists in a way that tied into the content of each week well. It’s clear she’s got this class down to a science!
• Katie is an excellent instructor. They are resourceful, creative and intuitive. Their knowledge is adaptable to many different situations and types of weaving.
• [This course] allowed me to push out of my comfort zone (having never woven before). Learning to “draw” through tapestry weaving has opened new ideas and avenues for me to explore beyond this class. Ultimately, though, the positive encouragement and support for experimentation allows me to tap into the “play” side of my practice again in a much needed way.
• Katie is a powerhouse! Her energy, positivity, and knowledge is the perfect combination for her to be a dynamic and responsive instructor.
