I want to share with you a wonderful experience I had where I had the opportunity to work with the staff at the Wheelwright Museum to exhibit my weaving during the beginning of my professional weaving career. I had the opportunity to influence the space in which my weavings would be exhibited by having the walls painted in the sacred colors of my culture, Dine’, but in muted shades of yellow, blue and gray. The other sacred color is white. An interview followed where I discussed the inspiration and context in which I created each of my weavings. The catalogue features wonderful, high quality photos of my sashes, wall hangings, and rugs with commentary in my voice, which was very minimally edited. This exhibition was featured at the Wheelwright Museum from January 31, 2004 to April 18, 2004.
I posted an image (below) of the cover of my exhibition catalogue. Yes, this copy is my working copy so it is somewhat damaged. Please contact the Case Trading Post if you are interested in purchasing a new catalogue at a bargain price of $10 for unsigned copies. Enjoy!

I wanted to give my visitors an update on where to find my jewelry and weaving available for sale. For serious Navajo weaving collectors, I take personal appointments to show my weavings not shown online. All of my weavings are museum quality and definitely one-of-a kind.
I believe there are a few my jewelry pieces still available at Shiprock Trading. I currently have my recent jewelry available at the Case Trading Post at the Wheelwright Museum. Please check with Robb Lucas, the Case Trading Post Manager, for current availability.
I also make presentations and have my weaving and jewelry for sale at Jennie Slick and Mary Walker’s Weaving Boot Camp class while they are teaching in Window Rock, AZ. Please visit Mary Walker’s website, Weaving In Beauty, at www.weavinginbeauty.com for dates for her beginning, intermediate, and advanced Weaving Boot Camp classes.
So you’ve twisted my arm. The last location to find my jewelry and weaving for sale is this website. Take a look in my jewelry and weaving galleries. I like and prefer to sell my weavings directly to the collector. I want to ensure my weavings are going to a good home. If you have any questions, please let me know.
