WEAVINGS

I started weaving in late 2025! I have experience with 4 harness looms, 16 harness looms, and dobby looms.

My bed (a place to rest your head)
2026
blanket: 53 x 62”pillow: 29 x 20”
cotton yarn; woven on an industrial loom @ The Weaving Mill

For this project, I wanted to make a bedding set for a future installation. My long term goal is to create a dream-like world, turning everyday objects into fiber pieces. I want my work to be viewed in a space where people are comfortable, so making a bed for people to lounge on while viewing my work felt perfect.

my curtains (protect me from the outside world)

15.5 inches x 35.5 inches (one curtain)
cotton yarn; woven on an industrial loom @ The Weaving Mill

For this weaving, I wanted to make curtains for a future installation. I am slowly building up this idea in my head where I want to make a fiber-art inspired bedroom installation with my work. For my BFA project (everything i've ever known), I made a quilted desk with wood structure, and curtains seemed like a good next step. My next step from here is to make a bedding!

Diary Entry (today was...)
‍2025
10 x 62 inches
cotton yarn

Using the first line in each of my journal entries, I created this weaving to show the variety within my daily life. Making something so personal into a permanent form felt freeing. I made the length of the weaving my height.

when did she disappear? (i’m jealous of the girl i used to be…)
2025
215 inches x 6 inches (~18 ft x ½ ft)
cotton and wool yarn (DOUBLE WEAVE PICK-UP)

This weaving was woven with a double weave pick up technique. The “right” side is mainly pink wool and the “wrong” side is mainly light blue cotton. The color palette is inspired by my favorite colors as a child. For the text, I used grids to create my own font, one that felt like it fit into this early 2000’s aesthetic that my color palette was representing. Through this work, I wanted to explore how it felt to transition from being a child to a full adult. It feels exciting at first, to have that freedom, but since I’m graduating in a few months, I’ve been reflecting on how I feel like I’m not ready to make that jump to “the real world.” Ever since I was legally considered an adult, I’ve felt this nostalgia for my childhood years and how we were all in a rush to grow up and get away from our parents. Reflecting on this now, I wish I hadn’t taken it for granted. I lost the girl I was, because society told me that all I should want is to grow up.
