We have various ways we can blend color in a tapestry. The workshop includes an introduction to various methods and hands-on exploration of blending colors through hatching, hachures, pick and pick, and weft bundling. Instruction will be provided for each technique. However, you’ll be encouraged to choose one to explore more fully as time permits.
