About

We are excited that Susan Pavel will be teaching Coast Salish Twining on January 20th & 21st, 2018. 

You will learn how to warp up a traditional loom and twine weave a small wall hanging or coin bag.  

She will share with you various oral teachings and traditions that her master teacher shared with her.  "One being, always teach the student who wants to learn."

Here is a link to her website.  We think you will find her video about her work fascinating. 

This Workshop is open to folks 16 years of age and older.

There is an additional material Fee of $25. Payable the first day of class with check or cash.

Dr. Pavel will provide looms for the workshop as well as scissors, small crochet hook, and tapestry needles.  Students are welcome to bring their own scissors, small crochet hooks and tapestry needles.


Instructor Bio: sa’ hLa mitSa ~ Dr. Susan Pavel first learned Coast Salish Weaving the summer of 1996.  Each summer she would produce one ceremonial blanket and then gift it to various elders of the tribe.  By the fourth year she was selling the weavings.  By the seventh year she was invited to teach weaving classes and has taught over 2,500 students.  She has participated and later solo exhibited seven museum exhibits.   With public and private collectors across the nation she continues to weave.  2016 marked 20 Years of Coast Salish Weaving for her and more importantly – SQ3Tsya’yay – Weaver’s Spirit Power.
