Upcoming The Triple Play: The Moorman Technique for Clothing, Wallhangings, & Rugs
3-Day Workshop with Nadine Sanders
Tuesday – Thursday, March 18-20, 2025
9:00 am – 5:00 pm
Have you always wanted your woven designs to flow? Want the freedom to inlay a variety of materials (both common and unusual) without distorting the ground fabric? Looking for a way to express your ideas pictorially or abstractly with weaving? Learn to apply this versatile weaving technique for use in clothing, pictorial weavings and rugs.
Using 2 sizes of warps, the Theo Moorman technique allows designs to be “painted” on the surface with inlay yarns. 3 different threadings achieve cloth to put on, walk on, lay down or hang up.
We will focus on designing for this weave structure. Samples are woven to learn the technique and the possibilities.
Students should be confident with warping a loom and already have familiarity with plain weave.
