hand-woven items and quality supplies since 1968
Homestead Weaving Studio produces high-quality hand-woven rugs, clothes, throws
and scarves. Chris Gustin is a fiber artist who takes recycling seriously
at her studio in Brown County, Indiana.
Her unique recycled rugs turn industry excess into contemporary art for the
home.
Our
handwoven rugs are featured on the cover of the 2010
Indiana Travel Guide, along with jewelry from
Amy Greely.

The
studio was featured on a segment of WTIU's Weekly Special in November, 2009. It
focused on environmental weaving.
New projects:
Check out what I've been doing on the looms and off. There is a rainbow
of new Möbius shawls,
scarves, and other clothing, and a studio full of Shaggy Chic
rugs.
We have expanded the studio to
include a "loom room." We are open 11 to 5 most days. Please call to confirm
that we will be here before you make the trip.

system that works on almost every loom without the use of a tension box.
