A question about where to find tapestry instruction recently was posted to the yahoo tapestry list. One reply that was noted there was that the American Tapestry Alliance website has an educator roster; here's the link to it:

American Tapestry Alliance is a wonderful organization that has created a network for people interested in tapestry all over the world. It has over a 25 year history and offers many resources, including retreats and workshops, exhibition opportunities, and a mentor program for either beginners (Helpings Hands) or intermediate tapestry makers (Distance Learning). If you haven't visited the website, here's the link:
