This wall hanging is woven in the Japanese Saori tradition begun by Misao Jo. I weave piece of myself into every piece of cloth I create. It’s the ultimate form of creative expression for me. Due to the nature of Saori weaving techniques my work often undulates and is rarely a straight flat rectangle.

Saori weaving embraces the human and the handmade. I try to bring forth my freest moments of creativity when I weave at my loom. Working with a vast assortment of fibers and colors allow my natural feelings to guide my creations. Every piece I create is one of a kind. I never repeat a design in exactly the same way.

I have been working with the National Forest Foundation and their tree planting program since 2016. For every piece of my work sold I donate to plant at least one tree. When you support my work, you’re helping to replant our forests in need.
