Janet Phillips, Hand Weaver, Fabric Designer and Tutor
I have been designing and weaving for over 40 years after studying industrial Textile Design at the Scottish College of Textiles, graduating with a First Class Honours Degree.
Colour and texture are still the passions that keep me weaving. I dye most of the yarns I use and I am continually experimenting and sampling to find new weaves and textures.
I also have a deep commitment to teaching others to be creative with weave. I teach one-day, weekend and week-long workshops in the UK and internationally.
Weaving Classes and Workshops
One to four- day weaving courses are held throughout the year in Janet's studio in Nether Stowey, Somerset. She also teaches occasional for Guilds and other groups around the country.
