Exploring Cincy (and The Cov): Workshops at The Frock

I've always been a big fan of weavings and wall hangings.  There are so many droll-inducing designs by artisans who are true masters of this historical craft.  Unfortunately, I never had the opportunity to take a weaving class while I was in design school, but when I found out Natalie Kaelin was hosting a class at The Frock in Covington, I jumped at the opportunity.

The most fun part of the class was seeing what everyone else created in their weavings.  We love that each piece was created by hand and has a unique story to tell.  These stories allow people to connect to their space and to one another.

Be sure to check out some of Natalie's work on instagram @nataliekaelinhome or www.nataliekaelin.com and keep scrolling to see some progress and final shots of our weaving.
