Seek and you Shall Find--Evidently!

Either you love Youtube or you hate it!  I've found some useful articles, photos and videos on this popular social network.  Just recently, An article about a Navajo weaver winning best of show appeared on my news feed--move over--Here I come to do more research--you see, I enjoy Navajo weaving A LOT!
I've taken several weaving and dyeing workshops with Navajo weavers--I have collected Navajo weavings and I cherish each and every one.

Navajo Times had the article and photo of  Isabel Deschinny

doing a review of her award winning piece of

Navajo natural dyes and weavings--

Many moons ago I took a natural dyeing workshop

with Isabel in Taos--what great knowledge she

offered.  Not only is she a weaver and dyer, but her

mother was Mabel Burnside-Myers!  The one and

only, who produced this piece

I have had this wonderful weaving/dyeing chart for years and I searched

and searched to see the maker, to no avail,

then I met Isabel and she told us the story of

her mother's work--each piece is individually woven

on a small loom and Mabel was not given any credit-

no wonder I couldn't find a maker.

So happy to have a maker's name with an outstanding work of art!
