Log Cabin on the Rigid Heddle Loom (Online Workshop)
The Log Cabin pattern seems complicated, but with a little guidance, you'll be creating fabric in this amazing and fun pattern using your Rigid Heddle Loom. We will be warping and weaving to create washcloth fabric using 2 balls (one each of contrasting colors) of Echt by Zitron. This two-part, one-day workshop allows time between the sessions so that you are able to warp your loom with confidence. By the end of class, you will be well on your way to creating log cabin fabric!

| Instructor: | Cynthia Jerauld |
| Instructor Bio: | My life in fiber arts has been a journey leading me through the forests of thread and yarn and across the plains of fabric to finally find my home in the magic of the loom. Being immersed in the crafts of sewing, knitting, crocheting, dyeing, and many things in between, has enabled me to understand many ways of approaching techniques and design in weaving and in teaching. |
