About
Jane Stafford’s Online Weaving Guild is back!!! We are going to gather weekly to virtually watch part of the Season 4 episodes, focusing on twill weaving techniques. You will be sent a zoom link one day prior to each session, we can gather online and through the magic of screen sharing, we can together watch the episode and chat as we view them. Because each episode runs about 3 hours, we will just watch the first hour of the episode, then you are on your own to finish the episode. You must be a subscriber to the JST guild, per agreement with Jane Stafford. We have also shifted the time to 10:00 am. Hope this works for you.
Details:
- You can be a beginner or master weaver to join this group.
- This is free for BARN members. Non-Members $50 for all the sessions.
- You can register at any time. Although you are signing up for the whole series, you can attend each session or pick and choose the episodes you want to view. We may also decide to view part year's episodes if there is interest. Please verify your email address as this is where an email will be sent with the link to join this online class.
- This class will be taught via the Zoom video conferencing program. For a great video on how to use Zoom, watch this tutorial.

More about the instructor Jane Stafford:
Jane began weaving at the age of 21, purchasing a new Fanny with the help of a chattel mortgage on her Chevette. Before two years were up she was accepted as an under-qualified, but very ambitious student at the Baniff School of Fine Arts. Two years later she was a teacher’s assistant there and, in a few more, an instructor herself. In subsequent years, Jane has had the great fortune to be able to earn a living doing what she loves most, weaving, and sharing her passion for excellence in cloth. Jane has been both a production weaver and a workshop instructor, helping students reach their potential across the continent, for over 25 years. She was the recipient of the “Teacher of the Year” award for 2014 from Handwoven Magazine. Jane now teaches exclusively in her studio on beautiful Salt Spring Island, British Columbia.
