Author Description

Come along with me as I confess all Did you ever start to weave something that you thought would be beautiful and watch in horror as it turned into one of the ugliest things to ever come off your loom? Do you have an embarrassing number of unfinished projects? Have you ever been frustrated because the fiber you must have for a project is on back order, or worse, has been discontinued? Confessions of a Weaver is a weaver's companion book that explores with humor the emotions and thoughts engendered by an intense relationship with weaving. "A romp of a good read....I smiled throughout the entire book. Finding a good storyteller that grabs the passion of handweaving and tells stories in such a personal and spirited way makes Confessions of a Weaver a jewel in every weaver's library. Confessions of a Weaver is the kind of book you curl up with in the afternoon, with a warm cup of tea, the cat in your lap, and baskets of colorful yarn at your side."
