About the final project for: Circular Weaving for Colorful Wall Decor

Circular Weaving for Colorful Wall Decor

“Thank you so much for taking part in this course and I hope you've enjoyed it. It's now time to work on your project. This could mean finishing the weave you started by completing the course tasks or making a brand-new project! Either way, I strongly suggest you take the time to gather inspiration and make a unique project of your own. Make sure to keep track of your progress with different pictures of each step. It'd be great if you could also explain the choices you've made along the way and tell us if you have any doubts. This will help me guide you better if you need advice. Here are the main steps to follow: The Materials Gather your materials and spend some time choosing the colour palette you will use, focusing on 3 or 4 colours.

The Composition Take some time to sketch out your composition with some pens and paper, or digitally using a tablet. The Weave Wrap and warp your hoop, and then begin weaving using the techniques demonstrated in the lessons.
The Embellishments Finish your woven art by sewing all of the ends into the back. Add some embellishments like sequins or embroidery to jazz it up!
Showcasing Your Work Finally, hang your project in a special spot in your home and stand back to admire your creative work!
And that's all! I can't wait to see the project you come up with, so don't forget to share it in the forum. You can do so by clicking on "Create your project". Remember to share both the final result and the steps that have led you to it. It would be great if you showed a picture of each step and added a brief explanation about what you have done in each one. I will be more than happy to answer any of the questions you might have along the way! I will try to get back to you as soon as possible. In the meantime, participate in the forum, comment on others' work, and interact with the community. See you there! ”

“ Final Project Thank you for joining me and weaving this open-centered circular weaving. I really hope you enjoyed the course. Take time to explore and experiment with different color palettes, and do some sketching to get your composition solidified before you begin weaving. Take time to properly set up your hoop. Pay attention to the warping. Doing so will make the rest of your weaving experience smooth. Practice the different techniques that I shared and come up with your own composition that reflects your artistic style. Don't be afraid to experiment. Finally, please join me in the For...”

Fiber Artist

Jen Duffin is a fiber artist based in Montreal, Québec. As a child, she loved making art, but didn’t make a career out of it until later in life—learning to weave mostly through online courses and lots of practice. For her, making art is more than a passion, it’s a way to heal and bring joy. Jen lives with chronic illness, and a lot of her inspiration comes from turning difficult experiences into something beautiful.

With more than 131K followers on Instagram, Jen has been featured in publications such as Be Creative and In Her Studio magazine, and she has been a guest on several podcasts. Her signature rainbow woven artwork was selected as a finalist in the Etsy Design Awards in 2019, winning the Canadian People’s Choice award.
