How To: Splint Weaving

THIS CLASS HAS BEEN CANCELLED

In this class you will learn the basic weaving patterns that are applicable to Shaker tape, ash splint, vinyl splint and reed chairs and stools. Using either a stool or chair that needs a new seat or a pre-assembled footstool as a base, you'll weave the seat with all natural fiber splint material. You'll leave class with a beautiful hand-woven footstool or reseated chair.

NOTE: Class tuition includes the splint material but does NOT include a stool or chair. You can either bring a stool or chair that needs a new seat, or you can purchase an assembled stool  (L=14", W=10", H=9") from us for an additional $30. To do this, please select the "Add Stool" option under "Event Session" during checkout.

Instructor: Janice has sewn since childhood and started out teaching macrame, then caning until she went into upholstery. Eventually she combined the two (caning and upholstery) as a business. Janice has done wicker and natural rush. While she retired in 2015, Janice still enjoys teaching and demonstrating these techniques.
