Do you want to teach online?

6 January 2026 by

I’ve been running online weaving workshops since 2021, but my experience of teaching online goes back many years before that. Join me and natural dyer Elisabeth Culshaw for a behind-the-scenes session on how we make our online workshops happen: the decisions we make, the tools we use, the ways we find and grow our audience. If you are thinking about making the leap from in-person to online teaching (whether that’s as-well-as or instead-of) then this session is intended to give you a place to start.

Monday 26 January 2026 10:30 am – 12:30 pm on Zoom

Free for members of Applied Arts Scotland, £10 for non-members

In-person courses at Devon Weavers Workshop

28 November 2025 by

In May 2026 I am going to be travelling all the way to the other end of the UK, to teach two weekend courses at the Devon Weavers Workshop.

First of all, on the 9, 10 and 11 May we will be exploring double huck and then, on the 16 and 17 May we will be diving deep into double twill. It’s going to be intense and, I hope, intensely fun!

Why not come and join me for some in-person double cloth adventures? You can find all the details on the Devon Weavers Workshop website.

Happy Weaving!

Digital shop update: tax-inclusive pricing

22 February 2024 by

This is hardly the most thrilling update in the history of thrilling updates, but I thought it worth a few words!

You may notice that prices listed in the Weaving Space Digital Shop are now a little bit higher than they were in January, but this is not inflation: it’s a change of system behind the scenes. Lemon Squeezy – the service that I use to bring you digital resources – now allows me to include VAT in the listed price rather than adding it on at the checkout.

A screenshot of the checkout in the digital shop, showing an image of the Two Faces of Twill resource pack and a blank payment form ready to be completed.

The way that it works is that the same total price applies wherever you are and whatever the rate of sales tax is in your country or state. For some of you that will mean you pay a bit less, while others may pay a bit more, so I’ve decided to split the difference with you. Although the ticket price is now higher, it is not in fact as high as the previous price + VAT. Hopefully that will give us all a reasonable place to land!

For now all transactions are still charged in dollars, which is a little frustrating for those of us in the UK, but I know that Lemon Squeezy are working on this. And I’m working on some new ideas for digital products, which I hope to bring you later in the year.

New design resources now online

17 January 2024 by

Have you ever wondered what a stripe sounds like?

I started using sound as an inspiration source for weave design when I took part in the Aural Textiles project (2018 – 2021) and the experience has changed the way that I relate to my environment, both as an artist and in my daily life.

It’s a topic that I have recently been sharing in talks and workshops, and I love seeing weavers get excited by the design possibilities that open up for them. In December I wrote a series of emails for my newsletter subscribers introducing some basic techniques for turning sounds into weave.

All that email content, along with several sound recordings and a video tutorial, is now available in the free Weaving Space Resources Hub. If you are not already a subscriber, you can get access to the Hub by signing up for my newsletter here.

Happy weaving!
