Selected works

Just finished this large (for me) tapestry. It is made entirely of hand spun cotton in natural colors on a commercial cotton warp. The embellishments are bone, clay, acorn caps, shell and the ragged remains of a butterfly. Mounted on wood. Made to memorialize two men, murdered for protecting the Monarch’s winter home.

Week of wonder

Frame Weaving Workshop

Newest little tapestry. Not quite sure if the title just yet. Definitely in the winter morning category.

Photos from a workshop I taught last month. These women were serious and committed to turning sticks and yarn into meaningful objects.

Carding wool for yarn so I can make a Big Tapestry. I am hoping to make some new (larger) works to supplement my old works.

2017 weaving adventures at Silver Bay YMCA camp.

I recently acquired a set of lightly used rigid heddle looms. I spent today setting one up and started a small project using cotton yarn and repurposed sari fabric.
