I started working for Dena in January of 2024. Our first goal was to destash products. Why do this? To open up the necessary space for Dena to create and provide more content to her customers.

I have an extensive background in creative endeavors. I have an Associates Degree in Culinary Arts and I went to Cosmetology school, both right out of high school. I have extensive training and experience with seed bead jewelry and knitting. I love to garden. I am a Master Craftsmen in Feltmaking and member of The League of NH Craftsmen. I find myself unable to resist new creative outlets.

After 38 years of weaving, there are still lovely surprises!

Front to back warping is a relatively new concept in weaving, developed and predominantly used in North America. I have found references to it as far back as 1939 and my theory is that it was initially developed at the same time as the jack loom, although I do not yet have clear proof of this.

Creativity can be beautiful and mysterious. It can also be painstakingly hard. Sometimes ideas just come, sometimes they don’t. There are times when I know exactly what I want to make, while at other times I feel like I am stumbling in darkness.

Balerion has quickly become obsessed with the rag rugs.
