I’ve finally made my first Instagram reel after years of resisting it and it did involve a fair amount of googling between the different software and platforms I was using. I have to admit that I did it in my video editing software, but it seems to have turned out okay. The reel (which is just a video on Instagram) is about the Tapestry Discovery Box that opens on Monday, January 15th. I’ve had such a lot of fun weaving the examples for this box. I hope you’ll join me for some tapestry play this quarter.
The video is also on YouTube if you don’t want to visit the social media giant that is meta (though clearly not metta!).*

*I do fairly often get people visiting my YouTube channel that object to these sorts of trailer videos. To them, I say, this is a business and if you want me to keep teaching tapestry weaving, you have to expect that I’m going to advertise my products. If I don’t, I’ll soon be scooping ice cream all day (a VERY worthy occupation) and there will be no more tapestry videos free or otherwise out there. Just skip the trailers if you never intend to buy one of my classes.
And for those of you who support me by purchasing classes or offering Change the Shed donations, thank you from the bottom of my heart. I most certainly couldn’t do this job without you.
