Sixteens Sample Exchange
I have been a member of the Sixteens sample exchange group since we sent our first effort in 1979. So, I now have hundreds of samples that explore the use of sixteen harnesses in lots of different weave structures. I've included my solutions to the yearly problem.

Weaving History Research
I rather backed into an interest in history when I first went to the Hambidge Center in the northeast Georgia Mountains. While I was there as an artist, I became fascinated by Mary Hambidge and wanted to learn more about her. This started me on a long journey to learn more of weaving history.
