“Ann is a true teacher in every sense of the word. She is thorough in her instruction and generous with her time even after the lessons are completed. She had me weaving my first project in 10 to 12 hours!” JAN S | SACRAMENTO, CA
“My goal is to teach the art of weaving to as many people as possible in the Sacramento area. And if I lived somewhere else, my goal would be to teach as many people as possible there as well.
Weaving teaches us much more than how to make cloth. Learning to weave provides focus and discipline and allows us to practice patience and endurance. These skills, I believe, are necessary to maintain one’s sanity in this chaotic world – a world of constant noise, information overload, and a lot of bad news.”
