Woven Memories

Tribute memorial wall hangings made with mementoes 

I began weaving memorial wall hangings several years ago at the request of a widow who wanted a rug made from her late husband's work pants. Since then, I have created wall hangings with ties from a retired university president, and numerous pieces with eclectic bits of clothing and memorabilia . Each piece is unique and created based on material supplied by the client. I can work with whatever items are provided, supplementing material as needed from my own supplies.

The weavings shown below are examples of my work, but not for sale. Approximate sizes and prices are included for your reference. Clicking on any picture enlarges it.
