About the final project for: Furniture Design: Introduction to Danish Cord Weaving

How to create different woven pieces

“Congratulations, you have made it to the end of this course! Thank you so much for joining me on this project, and I hope it is only the first of many for you. I hope everything I shared with you will be helpful on your journey to developing your woven pieces. Before saying goodbye, for now, I'd like to do a summary of the critical points for your Final Project. Choose the pattern and colors you would like to work with. Then, select the piece of furniture you will weave upon. Alternatively, build your piece with either the design provided or a design of your own.
