The Making
Every throw is woven by hand on a floor loom — one piece at a time, at the pace the weave requires.
Weaving is one of the oldest technologies in human history — a form of knowledge passed hand to hand, generation to generation. In Eastern Canada, this tradition ran deep. Fillion Atelier is part of that lineage.
The process is slow and deliberate. The decisions are made by hand and by eye, adjusted throw by throw, informed by years of learning the loom.
What handweaving gives a throw cannot be specified, only felt — a presence, a density, a way of wearing over time. The kind that lasts.
