The Weaving Rainbow

Macrame, woven tapestries, and macraweaves

I started making macrame and woven tapestries about 4 years ago as a hobby and that hobby has grown into The Weaving Rainbow. Each craft presents its own unique skills and challenges and I love the ability to transition between the two. I am drawn to the calm repetitious movement of working on a loom and the simple elegance that can be achieved when knotting rope in various ways. Each craft lends itself to different textures and color combinations that I love experimenting with and combining to form something entirely original.

Hand embroidered goods, patterns, kits and other fiber arts (I'm also a sewing educator on hiatus)

I come from a long line of women makers. I sleep under quilts that my grandmother made, my head rests on pillowcases that my aunt embroidered, and my memories are full of time spent watching my mom and grandmother create. I create one of a kind items through embroidery, quilting and other fiber arts. The majority of my sewing and embroidery skills are self-taught, and I’d like to think there is a little bit of genetic love seeping through.
