Bio: Patty began her weaving journey in 1990 when she purchased a used Glimåkra loom and set up her own weaving studio. Her early projects were inspired by Mary Black’s book The Key to Weaving, and she later expanded her knowledge by attending various classes and conventions, such as those at The Weaver’s Guild of Minnesota, Vävstuga, Midwest Weavers , and Convergence®. Patty credits her progress and joy in weaving to the support and friendships of fellow weavers. Over the years, Patty has explored both simple and complex weaving structures, creating practical and decorative pieces for the home and personal attire. She finds constant inspiration in learning new techniques. Patty was a key figure in the creation of the Textile Center of Minnesota and continues to support the local fiber arts community through her involvement with the Weaver’s Guild of Minnesota, Phipps Center for the Arts, and as the owner of Color Crossing Artist Studios in Roberts, Wisconsin.

Description: “Traditional Flowers” is a beginning draw loom project.

Regarding the Scandinavian Weavers Study Group: The Scandinavian Weavers have enriched my weaving and personal life. Everyone is supportive in all ways. The members of the group help me explore various techniques I might otherwise not think about. I’m so blessed to be part of this fantastic group of weavers!
