Traditionally, weaving circles are sacred gatherings of connection creativity and community.

They have been formed by groups of women in what I call traditional cultures and societies. These circles serve as spaces not only for creating textiles—often woven for livelihood—but also for ceremonies such as rites of passage for young girls transitioning into womanhood.

More than just a craft weaving circles are spaces where women come together to teach learn and share stories fostering a deep sense of belonging and mutual support.

In this space we weave not only fibers but also the threads of our experiences. We celebrate the tapestry of life that connects us all.

With open hearts and open minds let us honor the power of community engage the creative spirit within us and partake in an auspicious expression of self through the art of weaving.

Together we will create something beautiful meaningful and reflective of our shared journey.
