At your kitchen table, in your favorite, cosy armchair or out in your ‘she-shed’ join me for my new weekly weaving school.
Have you been wanting to try your hand at weaving or simply learn a new craft for a while now? Maybe you have been wanting to carve out time just for you, away from the daily hubbub and dedicate part of your day/week to develop your skills, express your creativity and transform your life.
If this is you, I invite you come sit with me and other like minded women joining together to learn and connect through their own beautiful and inherent creativity.
Since very early on women have performed ancient feminine arts to reconnect us with our own indigenous wisdom, settle in to our innate knowing and intuition, and increase our sense of well being and what is worthy of our attention. Women’s power is so much around where we focus our energy and hold a vision of our desires. The practise of sitting in circle creating through arts such as weaving were also a place where dreams were woven…dream circles …..and magic manifested.
My work over the last few years has involved encouraging this beautiful practice into modern day by inviting women to create time for themselves, gather in my home and create space for them to weave their magic around my kitchen table. I have enjoyed it so much and now in these changing times I want to continue this work just in an adapted way. So I invite you to come sit with me and weave, virtually gathering round our kitchen tables and in our creative spaces, through the wonderful power of modern technology, to develop and express your creativity and help us receive the support we need through the beauty and benefits of ‘me time’, mindfulness and joy of creating a beautiful piece of art.
Imagine having ‘me time’ scheduled and set aside over 5 weeks allowing yourself time to connect and feel supported whilst you immerse yourself in your creativity, learning and practicing a new craft, or build on your existing skills, and also weave your dreams into the fabric of your work to create a wonderful and powerful reminder in the guise of a beautiful wall hanging of what you have achieved and given to yourself during this time.

Suzanne is a fantastic teacher, with so much knowledge and creativity! I absolutely loved the cloud weaving workshop and safe to say I've got the bug now!! So many beautiful colours and designs to get stuck into! I highly recommend nest & burrow.

Attended another fantastic advanced weaving workshop on 19th October. Leant new techniques and created a whole new wall hanging that so different to my others As always Suzanne was fantastic. Cant wait until my next workshop on 27th November - Gemi, Bradford on Avon
Had an absolute blast learning how to weave. I'd been wanting to do this for such a long time. Suzanne was very patient and great at directing four impatient, first time weavers :) I'll definitely be booking another course with Nest & Burrow UK! Cannot recommend this enough if you have a desire to physically make something - Sam, Bath

Weaving School - FAQ
Q. I am a beginner - is this suitable for me?
A. Yes, just like in my home based workshops I will be teaching the foundations of weaving to start with and once you are comfortable with that I will be moving on to more advanced techniques over the course.
Q. What if I dont have a loom or any supplies?
A. I have large beechwood looms and weaving yarn kits available to purchase here .
Q. I have young children/work on weekdays, can I watch the sessions and learn in my own time?
A. Absolutely, I already have several ladies doing just this.
After all a big part of joining the course is about carving out 'me time'. The program allows you to learn to weave when it suits you so when you can slow down, relax into it, pause or rewind the video if you want, play music etc and maybe have a glass of wine or a hot chocolate! The women that are already enrolled love that they have time between sessions to re-play and re- do things or catch up on things if they want.
Plus we have our own private Weaving School Facebook Group where you can share progress, seek support, trouble shoot and keep connected between sessions. And if you have any specific questions, you can post them and they are answered during the next teaching session - that way your needs are equally met.
Q. How much personal attention will I get?
A. I am all about teaching hands on and this will be exactly the same on Zoom which is a great virtual application for teaching. There will be plenty of time within each session to address individual needs.
Q. What if I cant make a session?
A. All sessions are recorded via zoom and will be forwarded to you after each workshop to watch back at your leisure.
Q. Can I split the cost?
A. Yes I offer a payment plan - please email me for further details.
