Turn your imagination into a tactile creation.
In this course, your original design (20x20 cm) will be the artwork of a unique weaving experience.
We will begin by creating the technical "cartoon" (design template) and then dive into the world of materials. Guided in the selection of yarns, textures, and colors, you will learn how to give three-dimensionality to your idea using modern tapestry techniques.
A creative journey that transforms a sketch into a work of art you can touch.
