I am working on finishing my Chaning Woman series for 2010. I have 3 remaining Changing Woman pendants for sale at $350 each. I’m not sure if I will be posting them.
Other projects I have in the works are completing my Flying Critter series and making more handmade chains. I will be slowing down in working with silver and I will concentrate on my weaving. I plan on doing some experimental weaving this coming fall and winter.
I am still offering my Navajo weaving class. If you are intersted, please contact me and we will make arrangements. I hope to hear from you.
I thank you for visiting my website and reading my blogs. I hope you learn something from reading my blogs. Thank you.
I finalized my offering of a traditional Navajo weaving class. Here are the details.
WHEN: Oct. 25 to 29, 2010 (5 days) WHERE: Quality Inn Navajo Nation, Window Rock, AZ COSTS: Students will be responsible for their own room reservations (about $82/night incl tax for single occupancy, about $93/night tax included for double occupancy). Here’s the cost for the class for 5 days: $650 includes use of my handmade Navajo looms (available for purchase) plus cost of wool and basic weaving tools.
I am limiting the class to 10 students. I will be the only instructor so you will receive all of my attention.
We will be spending time learning techniques for warping, making edging cords, selecting warp types, weaving, use of Navajo spindle, and how we Navajos treat our yarns and weaving space. It will be part art class and Navajo culture, but it’s just weaving in Navajo thought. It will definitely be stimulating and you will learn traditional Navajo weaving.
If you are interested in this class, please click on the PayPal link to pay a deposit of $300 to hold a spot in this class. The deadline for the deposit is July 30, 2010 due to availability of facilities at the Quality Inn in Window Rock.
Please contact me if you have any questions. If I do not have 10 students signed up for this class by July 30, I will cancel the class and refund deposits.

I officially accepted a one-on-one weaving class with a student named Paul in Santa Fe, NM. For me, teaching Navajo weaving requires an interest and deep respect for the art and the culture. I’m about to immerse my student in Navajo culture as much as I can while still being in Santa Fe. Here are some of my gifts I will share with him. I am building him a loom, selecting for him reservation yarn to use, consulting with him on his rug design, and giving him a tour of Gallup and Navajo reservation area. I will work closely with him to complete a small rug.
I rarely make a Navajo loom for other weavers. I have concluded to make them available for sale to students who study with me.
Please contact me if you are interested in scheduling individual Navajo weaving lessons with me. I will help you to become familiar with Navajo weaving techniques and the resources I have at my disposal.
