We just finished the first piece and it came out beautiful!!!
Our patient was so proud of herself and her mom looked teary eyed
when I brought it back up as she wanted to give it to her mom to keep.
She picked it up super naturally today and I was so proud of her and wanted
to share.
Thanks for teaching me this beautiful way to express oneself and to share
it with our patients and families...it truly is life changing!!! I
am so glad we can bring this kind of joy to the kids. It is so empowering
for the patients and the staff....everyone is excited about it and the
nurse are even getting into it. Thanks for making this possible!

expressed the joyous experience in the SAORI weaving. Not only you have
introduced them to the art of weaving, but your valued knowledge and experience
is truly a great asset to their continued educational experience, and thereby
guiding the future careers of these inquisitive students. Thank you so

How does SAORI weaving affect your child's life? Do you notice any differences
after your child's SAORI experience?
SAORI has transformed my life in so many ways! It has made me a better
teacher -- a more patient, more tolerant of approximations, more willing
to take TIME to get things right. In my private life, I have spent
more time relaxing (and weaving), something new!

How does SAORI weaving affect your child's life? Do you notice any differences
after your child's SAORI experience?
After weaving at Loop of the Loom for just over one year, my 8 year old
son explained his tapestry "Woven Sunset" to me by saying, "Mommy,
the imperfections are what make it perfect!" That simple, yet profound
statement says it all. My son had just taught me a very valuable lesson
about life.

not make a mess that is until, we fed them.
