Learn More About Weaving a Life
Weaving a Life Leaders find fulfillment and satisfaction in leading a group of weavers through the seven Weaving a Life keyforms. Your leadership can make a difference in people's lives.
Many of our students have taken the class for their own personal growth, and don’t plan to lead or teach others. Weaving a Life offers the Weaving a Life Class on an individualized basis.
The curriculum is based on Susan Barrett Merrill’s years of experience in coaching and career development, and her development of the Weaving a Life “keyforms,” elemental symbols that form the weaving projects throughout the classes.

The Weaving a Life class incorporates a deep coaching experience with the founder of Weaving a Life, Susan Barrett Merrill, as well as learning tapestry and sculptural weaving techniques. Susan has been a weaver, spinner, and natural dyer for 35 years. Her work is internationally exhibited. She is a certified professional coach, a certified teacher and career consultant.
