WEAVING WORKSHOPS & KITS
Emma Baker, an Artful Collective member works with fellow weaver Gillian Siggers as www.tabbyandtweed.co.uk
Emma and Gillian both weave on rigid heddle looms and a floor loom creating unique luxury scarves, snoods and accessories. They are passionate about encouraging others to weave and they run a range of weaving workshops. They have 16 portable rigid heddle looms which they take to various locations within 2 hours of Salisbury enabling them to deliver in person workshops to craft and corporate groups.
Emma and Gillian also design and make weaving kits which can be used for weaving workshops. Their most popular kit is a rigid heddle scarf weaving kits which includes a pre-assembled rigid heddle loom, instructions and the yarn and pattern to weave the first project of a scarf.
“Emma and Gill turned me from a complete beginner to a confident weaver in the space of a day. I have attended two TabbyandTweed weaving classes and learned so much each time. They are patient and explain everything so well. I can now confidently weave and have even learned how to use pick up sticks”
