Rep weave is a very linear weave. Its rib structure lends itself easily to bending and folding into useful shapes. We will first review the fundamentals of rep weave and then explore how to build 3-dimensional pieces. We will take special consideration about the calculations involved to get the woven pieces fitting perfectly and talk about unique materials used in the construction as well as finishing and embellishment. To finish the session, each student will receive a bag containing all the necessary elements to make an etui (a sewing needle case).
 
Please bring any rep pieces that you own, and a camera if you'd like to take pictures.
 
Participants should bring: A notebook, pen, scissors, thimble, sewing needles, etc.
 
Materials fee: $16 for the kit
