Weaving Dreams to Reality.

Weaving as a metaphor for peaceful acceptance of self and others, faith in a higher power, and creating beauty with your hands.

Weaving Circles

Weaving Circles are small groups, led by a circle leader, who come together in purpose, through the act of weaving small, sacred objects. 
These 7 objects mirror human development, and are created with thought and care. In essence, we are recreating our inner selves through the act of 'sacred weaving.'
Circles are kept small to facilitate sharing and intimacy. The emotional environment is positive and supportive.
Once a weaving circle has been formed, members meet monthly. Typically this course is a semester long to complete the first 6 keyforms.
The majority of keyforms may be completed in one 2-3 hour session. Others, like the mask, may need 2 or more sessions to complete.
The shawl is a significant project that requires it's own semester to complete.
Our first circle will start in March at Paradise Fibers. This is a class for adults. 
An adolescent group is in the planning stages for mature girls ages 13-18. The focus will be positive thinking and self esteem.
