### 5/5 — Yay! I get it!

Depuis 3 ans que je suis avec passion, tous les cours de Jane. La façon simple de nous apprendre les différentes techniques et la nouvelle application, sont pour moi la meilleure école de tissage. Merci d’être là.

I have learned so much from this weaving course! The app works well, the videos are great, and the content can’t be beat. If you’re looking to learn to weave and want a coordinated set of courses with good community and support - then this is your course!

### 5/5 — Brilliant!

*2025-11-06*

I have been enjoying Jane's videos since signing up about three years ago. I'm currently working my way through series 9. Thanks to Jane's excellent teaching style, all aspects of my weaving have improved beyond belief. Thank you for sharing your extensive knowledge, making it all so clear and, most of all, such fun!
The best course I've ever done, either online or in real life.

*2025-10-04*

Totally comprehensive and top quality instruction

### 5/5 — School of Weaving is a great app

*2025-10-01, version 9.101.1*

I have been weaving for about 10 years but am not formally taught. Jane‘s step by step detailed approach is filling in gaps I never knew I had as well as giving me ideas on how to do thing differently. I am still on Season 1 but soo far it gets 5 stars from me.

### 5/5 — Traduction

*2025-09-28*

Dommage qu’on ne puisse traduire la vidéo.

### 5/5 — Love it!! Love it!!

*2025-09-27, version 9.101.1*

I have so appreciated the School of Weaving and the instruction. I started watching the videos as a brand new weaver. I don’t have anyone local to teach me, so all my instruction was done here. It has set a good base of skills and I love the weaver I have become. Thank you!’

### 5/5 — Such a well written program

*2025-09-17, version 9.101.1*

This has made me a very confident weaver. Lot of little tricks I never thought of that makes total sense and the process so much simpler. 10/10.

### 5/5 — It’s All Here!

*2025-09-17, version 9.101.1*

Everything you wanted to know about weaving and more!

### 5/5 — Love Jane’s teaching style!

*2025-08-19, version 9.101.1*

These classes are amazing.  I’ve learned so much and enjoy watching Jane do her magic.

### 5/5 — School of Weaving ROCKS!

*2025-08-11, version 9.101.1*

Clear instructions. Downloadable PDFs. Lots of structures and techniques. I love watching her videos over and over! She makes weaving fun.

### 5/5 — Selvages

*2025-07-21, version 9.100.1*

Finally selvages are perfect with Jane’s rhythm applied!

### 5/5 — Changed my whole warping style!

*2025-06-20, version 9.100.1*

I love this app! My husband gave me this class for Christmas to help me learn to weave on a LeClerc Artist that I purchased used about a year ago. After only two lessons (various videos), I learned a completely different way to wind a warp and dress my loom. This class is wonderful, and the app is easy to use.

### 1/5 — App

*2024-11-04, version 8.801.1*

Has lots of issues with Ipad

### 4/5 — Would love to be able to add images in comments

*2021-08-19, version 6.320.1*

Thoroughly enjoying school of weaving, and like the new interface and app. The only downside is how difficult it is to add images in comments in response to lessons. I found the workaround that lets me do it from my desktop… but it’s definitely functionality missing from the interface.

### 4/5 — App suggestion

*2021-05-30, version 6.320.1*

I love the School of Weaving and the content is wonderful.  The app, though, needs speed control.  Sometimes 45 minutes of watching someone throw a shuttle back and forth gets tedious, but you don’t want to miss Jane’s occasional pearls of wisdom.  That’s when speed control comes in handy :)

### 5/5 — I love having Jane’s voice in my head!

*2026-07-09*

The School of Weaving has helped me so much as a new weaver. I am gaining confidence. I rewatched and followed followed closely as I honed the basics and now its inspiration all the way. I’ve woven up many, and by no means all, class projects. There is something here for, may I say, everyone. Jane is a natural with the camera and a born teacher. Everything is fun on Jane’s island. Her guest teachers are fun and bring other inspirations. I really love this online school.

### 5/5 — Yards and yards

*2026-07-04*

The thing for me about the School of weaving is that we weave. Yards and yards of weaving is where I am learning and applying the lessons. You can tell someone how to do something, but the real learning is in the practice.  The structure of the lessons, which include Jane weaving,  not only promotes practice but provides an opportunity to see someone practice. 
It’s funny, at first I thought watching Jane weave was boring and I’d skip ahead, but now I not only watch but refer back to those videos when something is not jelling.

### 5/5 — Best of the best

*2026-03-21, version 9.304.1*

Most effective weaving help online I have found!

### 5/5 — Love love love!

*2026-01-16*

I signed up to JST a few years ago and just love it. Jane is so lovely and really good at explaining everything, you feel like she is sitting in the living room with you 😊The pdf notes are an invaluable resource to refer back to. I was a complete novice when I started and signing up to JST is the best weaving investment you will make👍

### 5/5 — Wonderful content

*2026-01-16, version 9.304.1*

Jane is an amazing teacher and shares such a wealth of knowledge on weaving.

### 5/5 — What a delight!

*2026-01-15, version 9.304.1*

I’ve been weaving for years, have taken many classes and workshops. Jane’s instruction on winding a warp and dressing a loom is a game changer. I just wound a 13 yard warp on my loom. I beamed it in less than 30 minutes without a single snag.  A dream! If you’re on the fence about subscribing and you can afford it, do it.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2026-01-06, version 9.304.1*

I started with SOW in 2018 when I retired!    I had more time…..  It has been a great ride. jane Stafford is an engaging teacher with excellent teaching skills. 

Each class is well designed.  Topics are interesting.  

Can’t wait until SOW season 10 starts!   
Especially looking forward to canalè, dimity, diversified plain weave.  Also looking forward to twisted wrap episode - which I have really admired..

Advice to anyone sitting on the fence - take the risk.   It is fun and informative.  Give it a try.   In my area 1 class costs double to quadruple the cost of one  season.  This is a great value.

Best course for weavers

### 5/5 — Best weaving school anywhere

*2025-12-09, version 9.304.1*

If you are a beginner or an expert, School of Weaving is for you. I’ve been a weaver for many years, and a member of JST School of Weaving for 6 years. Every time I log in and follow Jane’s episodes, I learn something new. I recommend it to anyone who is trying to be the best weaver they can be.
