"I can highly recommend the 2 hour weaving workshop. Nicola is a great tutor who talks you calmly through the process to begin weaving your piece of cloth. I absolutely loved it and will definitely be back. I was very proud of what I achieved in the 2 hours. If you're thinking of booking I would highly advise you to do so, you won't be disappointed. "

"Excellent couple of hours. Targeted tuition plus lots of additional ideas. Worth saying if you are tall as a couple of looms have greater height."

Wayward Weaves responded:

"Thanks Fran. It was great to have you in the studio again :) So many creative ideas! Hope to see you again soon"

Cally reviewed: SAORI Weaving Discovery Session

"I went to this course with two friends and we had the most wonderful time. The welcome was warm and welcoming, the instructions were clear and straightforward and we spent a very happy couple of hours weaving away and chatting. We all came home with weaved pieces we were very happy with. Highly recommended. "

Lisa B reviewed: SAORI Weaving Discovery Session

"Wow! What a fantastic experience. Nicola was superb, great introduction to Saori, extremely supportive environment allowing you to produce beautifully weaved outcomes. The looms are a great way to allow all abilities to create beautiful textiles pieces in a variety of colour palettes. Nicola provides differentiated tasks and allows you to progress at your own speed and introduces a variety of more complex ways of weaving. The beauty and uniqueness of this technique allows you to take risks with your work, try something new and relax, exploring a world of gorgeous textures and materials. I would highly recommend this workshop, it was great fun and can't wait to attend more! Thanks Nicola!"

Wayward Weaves responded:

"Thanks so much, Linda, it was great to have you in the studio. Still amazed that you did such a long piece in 2 hours! Hopefully see you again soon."

"It was absolutely wonderful I really enjoyed the whole experience. I am booking in January for a longer day 4 or 6 hours I hope. Thankyou so much it was just what I needed."

Cheryl Byford reviewed: SAORI Weaving Discovery Session

"Thank you Nicola for a very relaxing and creative morning weaving. The looms are excellent and so easy to use and I particularly enjoyed the technique you taught me of adding another colour in the middle of the row. I have now tried a cotton warp and a wool one, both giving me really pleasing results."
