Workshops

April 10, 11 and 12, 2026.    Nadine Sanders will present a workshop, Painting with Yarn. This 2 1/2 day workshop will run from 9:30-4pm on Friday and Saturday, with a half-day on Sunday.  The workshop location will be Strawbale Barn in Atascadero.

The Theo Moorman technique allows pictorial designs to be “painted” on the surface with inlay yarns. Learn to apply this technique for making wall hangings or fabric for home furnishings.  Special attention is given to the great variety of materials appropriate for the technique. We focus on designing for this weave structure. Samples are woven to learn the technique and the possibilities. Requires a 4 shaft loom with 10″ minimum width. If you do not have a loom please contact Patricia Martin. This is a  great “never been to a workshop” workshop.

The cost for this workshop is $205 and includes your warp, provided by the instructor.  Participants must sign up no later than the Guild meeting on January 8, 2026 to receive their warp in a timely manner.  There will be a maximum of 18 students allowed in this workshop. Check payments may be made to Patricia Martin at the December Guild meeting or by arrangement here .

There will be an optional session for Warp Preparation Support  on Saturday April 3, 2026 at 9:30am at the Strawbale Barn.
