Weaving in Beauty June 2013: Weaving The Start of a Busy Summer
So just like everyone else, I wonder where 2013 went, but I can look through my picture library and get a pretty good idea. If you take 5000 pictures a year at work, you can tell what you’ve been up to. I guess that’s what the people at Facebook are banking on. Now, I’ve…
A Gathering of Weavers: The Heard Museum Weaver’s Marketplace
For about the last six weeks, all of the conversations that I’ve been involved in with Navajo weavers have included this question: “Are you going to the Gathering of Weavers”?

We have offered our six-day signature weaving class and tour for 26 years. This new class offers our advanced students an opportunity to explore the weaving traditions of the Navajo Nation over a more diverse area and in greater depth. September 17, 2026 - September 20, 2026 A group of fiber producers, artists, and friends is working to establish a mini-mill in downtown Gallup, New Mexico. Shima's Rainbow Fiber will process up to 30 pounds of Navajo-churro wool per day. Initially, yarns will be spun specifically for Navajo and Rio Grande weaving techniques. The mill will be an employee-owned company — one that will eventually encompass Weaving in Beauty — creating local jobs, honoring the wool heritage of the Four Corners, reducing our carbon footprint, and hopefully carrying the work of Weaving in Beauty forward to a new generation. We are working with the State of New Mexico, the USDA, and other grant and financing sources to bring this vision to life. Now we're inviting you to be part of the journey.Upcoming Classes
