Teacher: Rebecca Juliette-Duex & Hannah Watson

Using traditional Shaker tape and repurposed chairs, create uniquely handwoven seats based on patterns such as houndstooth, canvas weave, and twill. This class is a deep exploration of woven patterns, starting with several weavings in paper, then translating those patterns into handwoven seats. Leave the week with a new understanding of weave structure and a selection of beautiful, functional chairs for your home.

Who should apply: Applicants of all skill levels are welcome and must identify as historically excluded or under-represented in the field of woodworking.

Type of Class:  This is a Scholarship Seat in an existing class, which means that only one of the course’s students will be selected through The Chairmaker’s Toolbox. To learn more read the CMT Class FAQ page.
