Happy New Year!
I’ve just sent out a newsletter with events happening at the studio and in Victoria in 2020. You can read it here.
It includes information and registration for SAORI weaving workshops and retreats with SAORI Salt Spring.
Happy New Year!
I’ve just sent out a newsletter with events happening at the studio and in Victoria in 2020. You can read it here.
It includes information and registration for SAORI weaving workshops and retreats with SAORI Salt Spring.
As of November this year, my teaching studio will be moved into Honeysuckle Cottage! This means there will be more space for weaving, a sewing room, a bathroom and full kitchen. We will still be in the woods, with a beautiful deck to enjoy.
Honeysuckle Cottage – soon to be the SAORI Salt Spring Studio space
The current studio space on the property will be converted into a SAORI “store” where you will find an array of warps, yarns, books, equipment and woven items for sale on display. You’ll also be able to try out the “specialty” looms in the store including the WX90 (a 36” SAORI loom), a 4-harness loom and the Piccolo loom.
For those coming on retreat (which of course I will still be hosting) there is a B&B next door to us at Bloom Organic (at the Blue Horse Gallery) with 2 different suites available. The neighbour on the other side is Bird’s Hill Cottage and their B&B will accommodate up to 5 people. Both are a short walk from the studio, so you’ll still be able to wander over to the studio anytime. As with all my retreats the studio will be open early and late (8 am to 8 pm) for extra weaving time.
Other accommodations in the area include Angel Cottage, Magnolia Petal, Quarrystone Inn, Soul Reflection B&B and many more. You can also find many listings and availability on the accommodations website at www.saltspringaccommodation.ca.
I’m looking forward to this new adventure and to seeing you here on the island!

Spring is here on the island, the daffodils and blossom trees are out and blooming. Hurrah!
It also is the time that things get busier here on the island and at the studio. Retreat season, visitors, classes & workshops, festivals, oh my! I love it 🙂
This past month we were on a couple of trips to visit family and so I wasn’t weaving much or writing at all. Starting now there is lots more to write about and so you will be hearing from me more often. I am just in the process of putting the next newsletter together as well.
Here are a few things that have been happening….
Threading up looms, some for a workshop this coming Sunday – this for one of my students…
A weaving recently completed at the studio by Teresa…
Working on designing a tunic with 3 pieces of organic cotton weaving…
And new items in the studio…
I will be at the Blossom Festival on April 12 on Salt Spring from 11-2, so I invite you to come and do some weaving on this year’s Blossom Banner!
Happy Weaving,
Terri
