Handwoven Rugs, Home Decor

Using two antique floor looms, I weave eco-friendly rugs from recycled Pendleton Mills wool selvage (the raw edges trimmed from Pendleton blankets). I love the dynamic colors and textures of Pendleton wool, and the rich, luxurious feel that they give my handwoven rugs. Drawing from my background in sculpture, painting, graphic arts, and textiles, I blend a colorful, modern aesthetic with the traditional art of hand-weaving. I also enjoy designing wine totes, pillows, and other home décor using Pendleton fabric. I love sharing the process and joy of my craft; and making something of beauty for others is deeply satisfying.
